Hi Charles.

As a simple workaround, you can create the zone file in /var/lib, and 
then create a hard-link (using "ln") to the same file in /etc/bind. That 
way you can configure BIND to use the /var/lib version (and it has 
permissions to create the signed version of the zone in the same 
directory), and you can manually edit the zone file in /etc/bind (along 
with all your non-DNSSEC zones).
