My ISP, at my request, delegated to me the responsibility for 
address -> name mapping in my domain.  I have a DSL connection with 6 IPs
(including the gateway).  I am having no end of problems getting it to
work. I've gotten it completely screwed up.  If there is anyone out there
who has a moment to straighten out my named.conf and zone file mess, I'd
really really appreciate it.  I've pored over RFC2317 several times, and
am none the wiser for it.  Whatever technical facility I thought I had has
been blown far far away from me, and may be lost for good.  I've fiddled
with this for hours.  I'm frustrated.  I don't even want to think about it
anymore.  If someone could just send me back the corrected files, I'd be
(very)*(grateful)^1000.  I've obviously gotten in over my head
technically.  

My addresses are 216.102.57.9-14

Using 'dig @ns1.pbi.net -a 9.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa' and so on, I
figured out how PacBell Internet has done the delegation:

 9.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa.  2H IN CNAME   9.8.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa.
10.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa.  2H IN CNAME  10.8.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa.
11.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa.  2H IN CNAME  11.8.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa.
12.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa.  2H IN CNAME  12.8.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa.
13.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa.  2H IN CNAME  13.8.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa.
14.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa.  2H IN CNAME  14.8.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa.

...which goes from one Class B network to another.  (I don't know if
that's at all relevant to my problem, but... there it is anyway.  At
least I still know what a Class B network is (I think... ) )

Anyway, here is the most recent edition of my DNS configuration.  Please 
please please help!!!!!!!  Thank you!!!!!!!
