I have the following near the top of my named.conf file...just below the 
"Options" section.  Through it, I have various logs for different parts of the 
named logging.

You're welcome to use it as you see fit:

logging {
        channel my_syslog { file "/var/log/named/named.log" versions 5; 
                                severity info;
                                print-category yes;
                                print-time yes;
                                };
        channel my_lame { file "/var/log/named/lame.log" versions 5;
                                severity info;
                                print-category yes;
                                print-time yes;
//                              size 50M;
                                };
        channel my_xfer { file "/var/log/named/xfer.log" versions 5;
                                severity info;
