On the ball Gerald, my RAQ2 quickly got lost after changing
the options in etc/named.conf to... 
options { 
	directory "/etc/named"; 
	recursion no;
};

luckily I had a backup of the
named.conf file and ssh access, so I was able to revert it. Phew.

so is the correct method edit to the /etc/named.conf file...
options { 
	directory "/etc/named"; 
	recursion "myserveripd";
};
??
TIA
