HI
I have installed  installed bind 9.5.-dlz on FC7.

When i am trying to start named it gives me the following error :

[root at bind ~]# tail -f /var/log/messages

following is the permission on my machine :
[root at bind ~]# ll /var/run/named.pid
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 41 2007-11-14 23:51 /var/run/named.pid ->
/var/named/chroot/var/run/named/named.pid

[root at bind ~]# ll /var/named/chroot/var/run/named/named.pid
-rw-r--r-- 1 named named 0 2007-11-15 15:57
/var/named/chroot/var/run/named/named.pid

my /etc/named.conf file looks like this :
