So looked like another smooth ride, well until today I noticed my domains dropped off the net. Too bad I did not check the bind gui or look at /etc/named.conf after the yum update since it was replaced with a generic version from 3.6. Luckily I copied /etc/named.conf-rpmsave to named.conf and I am back in business, well at least in 24 to 72 hours for the rest of the world :(
Has nothing to do with YUM. It has to do with RPM.

RHEL tries. the named.conf file says to not edit it, and to use named.custom. Some people don't follow the directions. see bugs: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=145094 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=145244
