I'm confused,
I've added 2 extra ip's on my box with the IP-manager.
I've pointed my 2 dns servers to these ip's.
But how does bind knows it should listen to requests on the ip's ive added ??
Shouldn't there be an entry in the /etc/named.conf file, instructing bind to listen to those ip's ??
 
When you 'add' the IPs within DirectAdmin it simply binds the IP addresses to the server on the network interface (for example eth0)

Bind wont get touched for that.

Hello,

The named program (bind) listens to all IPs and doesn't care which one a request comes in on. As long as you've setup the dns record properly, and pointed your NS to that server, all should be well.
