scrathin my head..(named is dying)

[DanO]

Sorry, 1 more point I almost missed, your zone file says
.
                         IN  A           209.204.28.46
                         for nathan.net.
However, Dig returns:

Your Not the authority for your zone, north.pacificnet.net is:
    You need to change the Registration to your DNS  Host, after you
register another nameserver, cause you need 2

Named was working perfectly fine last night.  Now in the morning
something happened and the log file shows me nothing.

there is something very wrong with NAMED.

IN fact, if you check right now 8:50am PAcific time you should find
it functioning perfectly because I just restarted the process

here is the named.conf & the master zone record dns1.nathan.net (but
something is telling me that its not this)
