Can't create a log file

Thanks for the advice.  I will check it again when I get back to work,
but I had to create /var/log/named and after I created it I did

  % chown named named

Permissions on the directory are 755.  The group on the directory is
root.  I even set the group on the directory to named but it didn't
make any difference so I changed it back to root.  Following your
advice I will remove the zero length log file (which is owned by named
and is writeable) and try again.

I think that I have the SElinux stuff turned on in RHEL4.  Could that
be causing the problem?

Thanks,

-Paul
