I expect it's where you specified when you built bind. Check the
readmes and other docs for a hint. But since you supposedly installed
it, why not use find to find it. As root, find / -name named -print.

Why you couldn't write in /tmp is something for you to do. One of
the reason is that /tmp simply ran out of space as a result of
your configuration. Remember /tmp is built from swap space.
