This is a flaw in redhat sysv script. I am including a fixed one as an
attachement (place it in /etc/rc.d/init.d/named). Note that this script
rely on a linuxconf fix that appears in early 1.12.
With this script, if any of /etc/named.boot or a zone file is modified, a
restart of the dns will be triggered.
