    An another daemon or an another instance of named must be using the udp
    port 53, thus named can't listen on that socket.

    The loopback interface always refers to the current machine, so it is
    pointless to start a name daemon for *one* machine. If You start a
    daemon that is only listening on lo0, You can only rech that on the same
    machine where it is running. That's why named doesn't permit You to do
    this. You must change the name.conf to listen on the external interface,
    that is connected to the Internet or to the local network.

    There should be some syntax error in You zonefiles. I've seen Your
    previous post, maybe this is due to the ttl, refresh, etc. times. I'll
    enclose a sample zonefile, modify it for Your case.

    $TTL 3600
    @ IN SOA ns.somedomain.hu.
    root.somedomain.hu. (
                                            2005042700 ;serial
                                            1D ;refresh;
                                            2H ;retry
                                            1W ;expiry
                                            2D ) ;minimum

                            IN NS ns
                            IN NS ns2
                            IN MX 10 mail
                            IN A a.b.c.d

    ns IN A a.b.c.d
    mail IN A a.b.c.d
    ns2 IN A e.f.g.h

    Of course, a.b.c.d stands for that machine. It will be the primary name
    server of the domain, and it is supposed to accept mails for that
    domain. The second ns2, e.f.g.h stands for the second names server. It
    is optional if this is a for a local network.
