This should be:
	@	IN	SOA	home.tzo.org. <addr>.home.tzo.org. (

where <addr> is your hostmaster's mailing list.  You don't want the
192.168.1.in-addr.arpa. as the lead-in zone.  Indeed, bind will
probably just reject this zone-file out-of-hand as the zone really
doesn't match.  Or, alternatively, you'd have to make a request for
"amps.192.168.1.in-addr.arpa.home.tzo.org" which is probably not what
you want ;)

You probably want a trailing '.' after neu.edu.
