can't open or create log files

[Kevin Darcy]

Isn't it rather self-explanatory? Whatever UID you're running named as,
doesn't have permission to open/create the named.run file in its working
directory. You need to change ownership/permissions on the named.run file, or
the directory itself, or run named with a more privileged UID.
