I've added this:

logging {
         channel simple_log {
                 file "/var/log/named.log" versions 3 size 5m;
                 severity warning;
                 print-time yes;
                 print-severity yes;
                 print-category yes;
         };
         category default { simple_log; };

};

I restarted named and lo named.log file shows up.  If I chown the file 
to the named user I get no luck either.  What next?
