I made sure that it was installed and also updated it. Here's what I
have:

[root at iam ~]# ls /var/named/chroot/etc
localtime
named.caching-nameserver.conf
named.caching-nameserver.conf.2007-09-18_02-23-28.364205826
named.rfc1912.zones
named.rfc1912.zones.2007-09-18_02-23-28.373332212
rndc.key
[root at iam ~]#

No "named.conf". 

root at iam ~]# rpm -q bind-chroot
bind-chroot-9.4.2-0.3.b1.fc7
[root at iam ~]# 

The package is installed.

[root at iam ~]# ls -la /etc/named*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root named 52 2007-09-18
02:23 /etc/named.caching-nameserver.conf
-> /var/named/chroot//etc/named.caching-nameserver.conf

Got a link to "named.caching-nameserver.conf" but no "named.conf" <sigh>

Are you running FC7? I know darn well I had a "named.conf" in FC6.
Weird, Ric
