Bind error

[Eric.Malenfant-xNZwKgViW5gAvxtiuMwx3w at public.gmane.org]

You need a TTL in seconds.

$TTL 10800 = 3h 

a default TTL of 1 day (86400) would probably more than enough for any
DNS caching, especially for internal/
reverse dns zones for your access only.

I could be wrong, but I think you can only specify TTL as a number of
seconds.
