That's all you should need to do.  Did you do this in *all* the zone files?

Are you getting this error on a slave server?  If the zone files were
written by an older version of named-xfer, they won't have the $TTL
directive in them.  You'll need to delete the files and reload named, to
force it to transfer the files again.
