[CentOS] named problem with cpanel

If you have your zone files in /var/named, you can use the following script 
to produce another named.conf file
The script will print the file to the screen, you can copy and paste it if 
you are satisfied with the results

Note : Run only if you have primary master name server

**************BEGIN SCRIPT**************
#!/bin/bash

DIRECTORY="/var/named"

#Generate /etc/rndc.key file (if you already have one in /etc/rndc.key then 
just run the script as non root user)
rndc-confgen -a

cat /etc/rndc.key
echo -e "controls { \n\t inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { 
"rndckey"; };\n};\n"
if [ -f "$DIRECTORY/named.ca" ]
then
  echo -e "zone \".\" {\n\ttype hint;\n\tfile 
\"$DIRECTORY/named.ca\";\n};\n\n"
fi

for file in $DIRECTORY/*.db
do
 if [ -f "$file" ]
 then
   zonename=${file%.db}
   echo -e "zone \"$zonename\" { \n\t type master; \n\t file \"$file\"; 
\n};\n"
 fi
done
**************END SCRIPT**************

Hope this will help
