"host unreachable" is one of the clearer error messages, so you need to do some digging. From the box that you've set up bind9 on you'll need to use dig to query the ISP's name servers. If that works, then you'll have to use tcpdump on that box to find out what named is doing. You might also consider posting your entire named.conf file, and let us know of any command line arguments you're using to start it with. Also name and version number of your OS and exact version of named wouldn't hurt.
