probably because there is no facility called named. You _must_ use the
correct facility names. And since you put named in two places (messages
and named), those probably won't work.
from man syslog.conf:
The facility is one of the following keywords: auth, auth�
priv, cron, daemon, kern, lpr, mail, mark, news, security
(same as auth), syslog, user, uucp and local0 through
local7. The keyword security should not be used anymore
I don't rightly remember, so you need to check the bind documentation, but
I believe bind syslogs via kern (and possibly daemon).
