Just a real SWAG.  Where is your "named.pid" file created?  Is it  
done in /tmp?  If so, then the existence and permissions requirements  
would be explained.

Now, it sure would be easier to help you if you would pose your  
configuration file.  If you were to post it, then you wouldn't be  
getting responses based upon SWAGs.
