hi ya...

think there's more to it...

if you are running a primary dns for a domain,
you should update your serial number in the SOA record
        - if you do not change the serial numbers...
        - you are asking for some wierd problems to occur...

If you are running a secondary dns for some domains,
I always remove the old DNS cache files ( /var/named/*.zx in my case )

than  stop and start named using any of the methods posted

- verify that the changes you made shows up in the 
  dns cache files
- check the log files and verify that named did not barf on anything
        ( /var/log/messages in my case )

named seems to do it's magical update periodically...propagating
any new changes based on the "larger" serial number... newer dns files

have fun
