Is /var/named/usr/sbin/named-xfer executable for user named, group named??

BTW, my named is started using:
exec ndc -c /var/spool/named/var/run/ndc ${1+"$@"} -t /var/spool/named/ -u named -g named

and the "ps" output is:
/usr/sbin/named -t /var/spool/named/ -u named -g named
(/usr/sbin/named is a link to /var/spool/named/usr/sbin/named)
