There are a lot of things that I see. Most importantly are the numbers at
the top. Convert them to seconds and save yourself some trouble. When 8H
became 8 it changes 8 hours to 8 seconds. Most people/programs use the
seconds only.
Secondly, use the IN A, IN CNAME, IN NS, etc. Forgetting the "IN" word
would possibly mess things up. So keep the new file and convert the
numbers to seconds and your problems should go away.
