Pretty much. user_before is also user-editable (hence the "user" in
the filename), but it should only contain certain statements.

Well, you could stop and restart the service. On Mac OS X, tat would be:

sudo qdnscontrol stopnamed startnamed

On Linux, that would be (as root):

/etc/init.d/named restart

Or you could tell named to reconfigure. With Bind 8, it looks like
this (on Mac OS X, put "sudo" on the front):

ndc -c /var/run/qdns reconfig

You may not need the "-c /var/run/qdns" - you might be able to use
the default command socket at /var/run/ndc. For Bind 9, try this:

rndc reconfig
