The default permissions in the package allow the service to read the
file. but if indeed it wasn't 755, it won't wor. Since 4.4, PowerDNS is
started as the pdns user, so you could chown the config to root:pdns
with 750 permissions if you want to clamp it down.

No, we check all the zones and dump both warnings and errors, but
`pdnsutil check-all-zones | grep -i error` should help here.
