Thanks Timothy by your help. Searching Dejanews, I found the answer:

To avoid "No default TTL set using SOA instead" message in you
/var/adm/messages (and console) everytime you restart your named daemon,
set the default TTL (it makes sense, no??? :-) in the first line og
each zone file:

$TTL 1d

Just do it.

Thanks all

Christian
