People, please read Jackson's problem report more carefully.
The problem is obviously _not_ that named doesn't want to
start (that's just a symptom), but that setting the variable
named_enable in /etc/rc.conf does not work.

Yes. It should.

I see two possibilities:
(1) Your /etc/rc is not read at all. This would be very
surprising. Did you any modifications to /etc/rc or
/etc/defaults/rc.conf?
(2) The contens of the named_enable variable get overwritten
at some point beetween where you set it in /etc/rc.conf
and where it's used in /etc/rc.network. Please look at
the _complete_ /etc/rc.conf file, from top to bottom.
Is there any other line which also happens to set
named_enable, thus overriding your setting?
If everything else fails, try ``grep named_enable /etc/rc*''
to find all places where named_enable might be set.
Regards
Oliver
