I posted this in my reply to Danny's post.

Please note I managed to get that sample I posted to load the named.root 
file and the zone files but not until I changed 

zone "." IN {
	type hint;
	file "named.root";
};

#
# Configure ourself as the host for basiczone.com
#
zone "example.com" IN {
	type master;
	file "zones/example.com.zone";
};


...to read  as...

zone "." IN {
	type hint;
	file "c:/windows/system32/dns/etc/named.root";
};

#
# Configure ourself as the host for basiczone.com
#
zone "example.com" IN {
	type master;
	file "c:/windows/system32/dns/etc/zones/example.com.zone";
};


Which would indicate that on windows setups an absolute path is required 
rather than a virtual path.

Also, I am getting more bugs in the config files after they are parsed.

All config files, be it the named.root, or any zone file, states that they 
have an unexpected end of input.

I assume I am missing a terminator or tag somewhere???
