Of course right.

What I was addressing was the part of his question asking about the
need for absolute file names.  Not needed.

	options {
		directory "/xyzzy/named";
		...
	};
	...
	zone "ziggy.xyzzy.int"	IN	{
		type master;
		file "ziggy/zone.ziggy";	// relative file name
		// file "/xyzzy/named/ziggy/zone.ziggy"; - not needed
	};
