Hosting eight domains, one not working, configuration seems OK

Hello list,
I hope this is the right list to be sending this to -
the one for Named. If not, please redirect this, and
me, to the proper list.
The server I'm admin of is hosting eight different
domains: afdesi.org, bleuciel-lingerie.com,
minisat.com, hallab.com, minisat.net, minisat.org,
rhallab.com and tripoli-city.org. The server itself is
running RedHat Linux 7.0, and has bind-8.2.2_P7-1
installed. Everything was fine and dandy until 1600
yesterday.
Yesterday, at 1600, I added a cvs alias to the
named.nethosts file and restarted named (#
/etc/init.d/named restart). Since then, named refuses
to server anything in the minisat.net domain.
I've copied the zonefile of minisat.net to minisat.org
to see if it was a problem in the zone file -
apparently, it wasn't, as the minisat.org domain works
just fine.
I've also tried the inverse - it didn't help.
I'm listing /etc/named.conf, /var/named/named.nethosts
/etc/resolv.conf /etc/hosts and /etc/host.conf below.
I've read the net howto and the DNS howto on this
subject, but couldnot find anything that helped. I've
searched Google for the SERVFAIL message I get with
dig (output listed as well), and got two possibilies:
either it's looping back on itself, or it's out of
memory. My guess would be the first, as the server is
almost without a job and reasonably well equipped for
what it does and as the output from dig seems to point
in that direction..
If anybody has any pointers, please help. I'm at a
loss, and nobody here with any knowledge of Linux
(granted, there aren't that many of 'em here) sees
anything wrong either..
Thanx
Ronald
