In 9.4.1.P1 the allow-query default was changed to localhost; localnet, 
and I had my own name for the acl for my localnets so I was locking 
everything out.  What tripped me up was the default named.conf had 
allow-query {localhost;} and I took that to mean that the default was 
any, not that this blocked out localnet.  Sigh. Panic over and back to 
running with the new box.  But that old box will be kept running for the 
next week.
