I have been using the PPP-Pedantic PPP Primer documentation to set up a shared dial-out connection/gateway on my FreeBSD 4.1 box for my home network.  That I managed and decided to carry on to Chapter 6 - Exercises for the Interested.  Chapter 6.1 Creating a mini-DNS system has come up with a syntax error during the bootup that I have not been able to solve.  

Doing additional network setup: namedSep 27 20:10:30 mydomain named [79]: /etc/namedb/named.boot:3: syntax error near directory
  portmap.

the line it refers to in the named.boot file is :-
directory  /etc/namedb

thank you for any help or suggestions you maybe able to offer
