I think that you made a small mistake. If you want to start a daemon, you have to enable it in /etc/rc.conf, otherwise it won't start (every rc script sources /etc/rc.conf with the line 'load_rc_config'). Try adding named_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf, and try again. If you look in /etc/defaults/rc.conf, and search for 'named', you can see that it is disabled by default. You can also see there the rest of the options you can set for named.
