There's no named.conf already on the system in FC6.  Instead there's
a minimal version called /var/named/chroot/etc/named.caching-nameserver.conf
(or something similar).

I think if /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf exists and is symlinked to
/etc/named.conf, then that will be used instead when named is run at boot
time.
