Maybe this will help,

zone "xxx.xxx.xxx.IN-ADDR.ARPA" {
        type master;
        file "db.xxx.xxx.xxx";
};

zone "domain.com" {
        type slave;
        file "virtuals/db.domain.com";
        masters { xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx; };
};

I believe you're looking for listen-on,

listen-on { xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx; };

Put that in your options {}; block (I.e. listen-on { 10.0.0.1; };
would cause the server to only 'hear' DNS requests on the interface
with the 10.0.0.1 IP (no matter how many interfaces are present in the
server)).

Lots of documentation is there, it just requires more effort than it
used to (a bad thing for sysadmins, where laziness is a virtue ;).  If
you download the documentation (bind-8.1.2-doc.tar.gz, goto the 'BIND
8.1.2 Documentation' link from http://www.isc.org/new-bind.html) and
gunzip|tar the sucker, you'll get HTML documentation, the BOG, etc. -
lots of useful info.

All of that used to be available online, I suppose they're trying to
reduce the load on their system(s).  *shrug*

Later,
