Judging from output of "rpm -q bind --scripts" it looks like named was 
uninstalled and stopped. The postinstall scriptlet was never run on my system ( 
and it doesn't start named if it's not running.

I also had to run "/sbin/chkconfig --add named" to remake the symlinks in 
/etc/rc.d/rc.3/. You might want to check your system.
