Make sure your secondary zone configurations in /etc/named/conf use the 
slaves subdirectory whch is writable by the 'named' id which named runs 
as.  For example:

----------------START-------------------
options {
        directory "/var/named";
};

zone "zamir-enterprises.com" IN {
     type slave;
     masters { 192.168.9.7; };
     file "slaves/zamir-enterprises.com.zone";
};

-------------- END ---------------

If you have named chrooted (/etc/sysconfig/named contains 
ROOTDIR=/var/named/chroot) then the actual location of the above file 
would be /var/named/chroot/var/named/slaves/zamir-enterprises.com.zone.
