Piotr,

You can not use rncd to 'start' named.  This is because there is no
command channel.  The command channel is created when named is started
(assuming that it is configured in named.conf).

When you try to start with /usr/local/sbin/named and it fails, there
should be some error messages in the message log.  (on Linux systems in
/var/log/messages).

What do the error messages tell you?

If the start up is sucessful, you should see something like the
following:

Jun 27 17:50:32 sparta named: named startup succeeded
Jun 27 17:50:32 sparta named[470]: starting BIND 9.2.0a2 -u named -d 2
Jun 27 17:50:32 sparta named[470]: using 1 CPU
Jun 27 17:50:33 sparta named[470]: loading configuration from
'/etc/named.conf'

Jun 27 17:50:34 sparta named[470]: command channel listening on
