Thanks Mark -
I thought I did that with the following in each db.xxxx  file:

;
; Host Addresses:
;
localhost                       IN A            127.0.0.1
                                IN A            66.124.156.123


It is in EVERY one of each of zone files...

Except  db.light-family.com   itself, which has:

; Host Addresses:
;
localhost               IN A            127.0.0.1
dns1                    IN A            66.124.156.123
mail                    IN A            66.124.156.123

because I don't want   dns1.hall-brothers.com & mail.hall-brothers.com, 
because light-family.com is supposed to be the "head honcho"

                 I suggest that you make sure that *every* PTR record has 
a
                 corresponding A record or that the PTR record is removed.
