Not sure since you say it was working before but there should be
a section in /etc/named.conf and a line in /var/named/zone.com
file, zone.com being you domain-name.
/var/named/zone.com
localhost A 127.0.0.1
/etc/named.conf
// Provide reverse mapping for the loopback address
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "zone/127.0.0";
