Trying to set up Bind through YaST an failing

Hello everyone. A while ago I tied setting up BIND as an authoritative nameserver for my domain, but it didn't go well because I didn't know it could be done much more easily through YaST. This time things seem to be going a bit better, but it still isn't working yet. I think everything is reasonably in order so far although I haven't even pointed my domain from networksolutions.com to my host yet. I'm just trying to get the nameserver configured correctly first before making any other changes. I'm now on a less enormous subnet (just a /29 rather than a /21 like I used to be on). The problem that's most obvious is that I can't seem to do anything on the SOA page in YaST's configuration module. Can anyone suggest why this might be? I've been following the instructions from http://doc.opensuse.org/products/dra...t/cha.dns.html

I skipped over the instructions for logging, ACLs and TSIG keys 'cause I just want a basic, working setup before worrying about any of the other options. There was something in the zones list about an empty zone, I think. It looked like it was for IPV6, though, so I deleted it to keep the setup as simple as possible. Was that a dumb idea?

The SOA page in my domain's master record file just has the text area for the serial number, a TTL line and a drop-box to set the units to dat/weeks/etc. I don't see a way to add any other information.
