DNS BIND 9.2.1 enabling dynamic updates

[Sam Warren]

I am getting a strange error message when trying to implement DNS. I
installed Woody on my S/390. I am running BIND 9.2.1. I can set up a slave
zone and it works. I can promote the slave to a master and it works. But as
soon as I try to allow updates or allow queries, even from 127.0.0.1, I get
the following message in my /var/log/daemon.log:
 
Sep 17 10:31:38 lnxa140 named[25320]: starting BIND 9.2.1

Sep 17 10:31:38 lnxa140 named[25322]: exiting (due to assertion failure)

 
Here is my named.conf file when it is working minus comments:
options {
        directory "/var/cache/bind";
        query-source address * port 53;
         forwarders {
                10.10.1.122;
         };
        auth-nxdomain no;    # conform to RFC1035
};
zone "." {
        type hint;
        file "/etc/bind/db.root";
};
zone "localhost" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.local";
};
zone "127.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.127";
};
zone "0.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.0";
};
zone "255.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.255";
};
zone "winnebagoind.com" {
        type master;
        file "/var/cache/bind/winnebagoind.com.hosts";
        };
 
Here it is again when I add the updates and it fails:
options {
        directory "/var/cache/bind";
        query-source address * port 53;
         forwarders {
                10.10.1.122;
         };
        auth-nxdomain no;    # conform to RFC1035
};
zone "." {
        type hint;
        file "/etc/bind/db.root";
};
zone "localhost" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.local";
};
zone "127.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.127";
};
zone "0.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.0";
};
zone "255.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.255";
};
zone "winnebagoind.com" {
        type master;
        file "/var/cache/bind/winnebagoind.com.hosts";
        allow-update {
                10.10.1.23;
                };
        };

Anyone have any ideas why this isn't working or what the error message
means?
