I did try that before. I do not have /var/named/var/log/named but I do have
/var/named/var/log/ and I created a file there, gave it appropriate
ownership but messages returned the same error about not being able to find
a file
logging{
  channel simple_log {
    file "/var/named/var/log/nlog";
    severity info;
    print-time yes;
    print-severity yes;
    print-category yes;
  };
  category default{
    simple_log;
  };
};
