Right you are. 

};
zone "." IN {

The semicolon after the first bracket was missing. I'm back to this:

[root at viewridgeproductions2 etc]# service named restart
Stopping named:                                            [FAILED]
Starting named:                                            [  OK  ]

Can't stop, but start is ok... any ideas?
