	I stared at named.conf for ten minutes before seeing what 
	you meant.  I think.  How about 
	^zone "private"{
	};

	and

	^zone "private.rev" {
	}

	???

	This is my entry for db.thought.org. The zone name is simply
	"thought.org".


zone "thought.org" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/namedb/s/db.thought.org";
        allow-update{
                       }; 
	...

};
