Hi,

Either you've configured it like that -- check the named.conf in the
chroot jail or you don't have a syslog socket inside the jail for named
to send syslog messages to.

Check your syslogd man page to see how to get it to create additional
log sockets.
Under FreeBSD it'd be something like
 syslogd -l /usr/local/bin/var/run/log
Or recent linux it'd be
 syslogd -a /usr/local/bind/dev/log
