You are going through entirely too many steps. 1) Edit zone file 2) rndc reload foo.com Also in the steps you have taken above you are stopping bind via rndc stop and then trying to start it with the unknown "start" command. Even if "start" was known it would not work, rndc communicated directly with named, and since it was already stopped in a previous step there is no way that your "start" (or any other command, reload, flush, whatever) could work at that point.
