maverick named logging

[Len Conrad]

Redhat release 9

BIND 9.5.0-P2, compiled from source

named.conf has it 

/*
logging
*/ 

... commented out.

rndc status
version: 9.5.0-P2
number of zones: 81
debug level: 0
xfers running: 0
xfers deferred: 0
soa queries in progress: 0
query logging is OFF
recursive clients: 8/0/1000
tcp clients: 0/100
server is up and running

named is still clogging up /var/log/messages with lines like:

Jan 23 09:03:31 www named[4274]: client 208.14.218.12#54918: query

Jan 23 09:03:28 www named[4274]: unexpected RCODE (REFUSED)

Jan 23 09:05:38 www named[4274]: too many timeouts resolving 

Jan 23 09:05:39 www named[4274]: lame server resolving 

Jan 23 09:06:09 www named[4274]: FORMERR resolving

Where and what is telling named to log to syslog?

Thanks,
Len
