here's what I'm doing:

 . both named and rbldnsd are running on the same server
  
 . rbldnsd listens on 127.0.0.1 port 54

 . the DNSBL stanzas in named.conf are setup like this:

    zone "dnsbl.sorbs.net" in {
         type forward;
         forward only;
         forwarders { 127.0.0.1 port 54; };
    };
