CentOS 7 and BIND

[Gilbert T. Gutierrez, Jr.]

Anthony,
I looked at your responses to TJ, Lisa, and myself. What you provided 
does not tell me what the issue is. Have you tried starting from 
scratch? Uninstall bind, delete leftover configuration files found in 
/var/named and /etc/named, reinstall, and try to start the base 
configuration with no modifications? I am going to create a test 
environment here and see if I can get the same issue to appear.

Gilbert
