Your bind code is old and has the old info in it. D root changed it's ip address. Bind has a built-in hints file, in case you don't setup one and it probably has the old ip address for the D root.

Edward,

Agreed.

My concern though is why the following show up in my logs when the IP is 
already in the root hint file.

checkhints: d.root-servers.net/A (199.7.91.13) missing from hints

Rohan,
          Normally you shouldn't need to. However, sometimes errors happen
and we just need to correct them as they come.

Thanks Edward,

I didn't think I needed to edit the downloaded root hint file. In fact the
d.root-server.net server is assigned the IP address in the dig output
below. I do not know where 128.8.10.90 comes from.

dig d.root-servers.net

Ah..I also just thought of this....ensure that you have two seperate IPs
for the server in the hints..you may have two entries with the same IP.

Hello,

Why do I still get the following in my logs even after downloading the
latest version root hint file.

checkhints: d.root-servers.net/A (128.8.10.90) extra record in hints
checkhints: d.root-servers.net/A (199.7.91.13) missing from hints
