rndc stop

Maybe something like this would do? (Apologize me for the most likely
invalid bash syntax, but you get the idea anyway.)

	# shut down named
	/usr/sbin/rndc stop
	while [ "`/sbin/pidof named`" != "" ]
	do
		usleep 500000
	done
	# named has shut down at this point

If you don't have pidof (or similar) on your system, something like
this should do the trick:

	#!/bin/sh
	echo `ps ax | grep $1 | awk '{print $1}' | sed 's/[^0-9\ ]//g'`
