DNS isn't a clear-text protocol (unlike POP3, SMTP etc), so that's fine. It
won't display a banner or anything.

The "-g" option is to get debug output. I doubt that works nicely with the
"service" command. Running RedHat?
I don't have a RedHat system in front of me... but.. you could try:
# service named stop
# /usr/sbin/named -g
..and see if that works at all.
