I am not 100% sure, but what format of the zone were used? I think this should be usually catched by default check-names value on master zones. However, in masterfile-format, I found this sentence [1]:
> In particular, *check-names* checks do not apply for the |raw| format. Does that mean dynamic updated zones saved in raw format would never have check-names active, both on dynamic updates and on (re)start of named? I have not tested it yet, but it might be somehow hard to avoid. I found no details about dynamic updates related in check-names. I think it should refuse such updates on primary server, but not sure that is enforced. Especially if zone file format is raw.
