ttl in bind 9.x

[Charles Menzes <charles@lunarmedia.net>]

I just noticed today that I'm more a creature of habit than I had thought. 
I've made some serious changes to a zone file for a customer and decreased 
the TTL to a low number to hopefully expedite the propogation of the info 
across nameservers. However, I noticed that with BIND 9.x I placed a TTL 
statement at the top of my db records...

$TTL 86400                                                                                                                          
@       IN      SOA     ns1.lunarhosting.net. dns-admin.lunarhosting.net.
                                2002091702      ; Serial                                                                            
                                10800           ; Refresh
                                3600            ; Retry
                                604800          ; Expire
;                                86400 )         ; TTL
                                400 )   	; TTL

I am by far, no dig master, but I believe dig for this domain is showing 
that the TTL is 86400. Can anyone give me an ack saying that the $TTL is 
actually taking precedence over the setting in the SOA?

Thanks -c
