It's been a while since I added a virtual host.   I'm sure I did the
'default' setup.  There are files in /var/named/ for the virtual hosts that
virtualmin created.  I don't know what changed my named.conf but everything
is still working.

The 'Set up DNS zone' is checked by default, but I don't have a template
setup in the 'Server Template', never did.  Everything has always worked out
of the box. I'm not sure what has stepped all-over my named.conf file.  I am
running webmin 1.230 and virtualmin 2.604 on a CentOS 4.1 system running
BIND 9.2.4.

I don't know if this is a problem but I thought it was very strange.

What should  I do?

TIA
