I think you are simply in the wrong directory. On 5209R and 5210R named is chrooted. That means the directory is /var/named/chroot/var/named/ So cat /var/named/chroot/var/named/db.anydomain.com outputs perfectly readable text. Now that makes a lot of sense - so just a matter of looking in the right place! As so often the case, not knowing enough about Linux. ( Many thanks for your help.
