FC3 Bind Problem?

[Richard E. Robbins]

I decided to do a fresh install of Fedora Core 3 rather than an in-place
upgrade.

I'm having problems getting my DNS name server to work properly.

It used to work well.

In addition to the collection of zone files that come with a clean system,
I've added two files.  One zone file is for the "itinker.net" zone and the
other is a reverse mapping file for the 198.183.251.* class C address space.

When I fire up named, I get an error when attempting to load the reverse
mapping file.

The error message is:  

Nov 14 15:02:07 manchester named[5463]: zone 251.183.198.in-addr.arpa/IN:
loading master file 251.183.198.in-addr.arpa.zone: permission denied

The zone file for the itinker.net zone is loaded without error.

I'm stumped as to why one file would work but not the other.
