logging requests

I'm trying to log requests users make for DNS queries.  I've tried the
following just to see logging works:

logging {
        channel syslog_errors {
                syslog user;
                severity debug 1 ;
                print-category yes;
                print-severity yes;
                print-time yes;
                };

and nothing appears in any syslog file that I could find.  I've also
tried

logging {
        channel user_log {
                file "/var/named/usage.log" ;
                print-category yes;
                print-severity yes;
                print-time yes;
                };

and nothing appears in the "/var/named/usage.log".   I've RTFMd till I'm
cross-eyed, and I can't find a good example for what I need.  All I
really want is a log that says:

user	date+time	URL_requested

thanks.
