cat /etc/sysconfig/named

FC-4 would generally chroot named/bind in /var/named/chroot and have
symbolic links to /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf and zones
in /var/named/chroot/var/named. 

also, you would need to change the ownership of the zone files...

chown named:named [chroot]/var/named/utic.rnu.tn.zone
