I have it working with this:
logging {
channel namedlog {
file "/var/log/nlog";
severity info;
print-time yes;
print-severity yes;
print-category yes;
};
category default { namedlog; };
};
When I restarted named, the nlog file was created in /var/named/var/log
automatically:
home# ls -lo /var/named/var/log/nlog
-rw-r--r-- 1 bind wheel - 1253 Jul 11 11:43 /var/named/var/log/nlog
If I add the flag into rc.conf to shut off chrooting, logging changes to:
/var/log/nlog
