Ok - found out some more information:

the 'pfdns' service isn't running per Status > Services.
I clicked "start" and it goes back to stopped.

So I started it from the command prompt (sudo /usr/local/pf/sbin/pfdns
start) and it says the following:
Couldn't create TCP socket: Address already in use at
/usr/lib/perl5/Net/DNS/Nameserver.pm line 90.
        Net::DNS::Nameserver::new('Net::DNS::Nameserver', 'LocalAddr',
'ARRAY(0x5256338)', 'LocalPort', 53, 'ReplyHandler', 'CODE(0x521e768)',
'Verbose', 0, ...) called at /usr/local/pf/sbin/pfdns line 116

couldn't create nameserver object

So it looks like there's already a DNS server running...?

After  a 'netstat -tulpn | grep :53*' *it looks like the named service is
listening on 53:
tcp        0      0 10.2.6.1:53             0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN      1215/named
tcp        0      0 10.2.5.1:53             0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN      1215/named
tcp        0      0 10.100.100.56:53        0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN      1215/named
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:53            0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN      1215/named


Is that normal?  I would imagine that the pfdns service would be in
charge?  However I do have "named=enabled" in my networks.conf so I dunno.
Are they the same thing?  Again, not a lot info on either the pfdns or
named services in the admin guide.

If I kill the named service and run 'sudo /usr/local/pf/sbin/pfdns start'
again it just sits there - nothing happens.

any suggestions would be appreciated.
