This is good.  But bad, in that would have been an easy solution.

This whole problem sounds vaguely familiar, but I just can't catch the
pointer to the memory and the solution ... just out of reach ...

Look up the "logging" clause in named.conf.  There's a lot, and I don't
remember anywhere near all of it, so referring you to the documentation
is best, but ask if you need help.  E.g.:


// logging clause - who, what, where, why, when, how, how long?
logging {
	channel querylog {
		file "/var/log/named/query.log" versions 15 size 25m;
		// severity debug;
		severity info;
		print-time yes;
		print-category yes;
		print-severity yes;
	};
	channel securlog {
		file "/var/log/named/security.log" versions 15 size 25m;
		// severity debug 9;
		severity info;
		print-time yes;
		print-category yes;
		print-severity yes;
	};
	channel all {
		file "/var/log/named/named.log" versions 15 size 25m;
		severity info;
		print-time yes;
		print-category yes;
		print-severity yes;
	};

	category queries { querylog; };
	category security { securlog; };
	category lame-servers { null; };	// ignore
	category default { all; };
};
