Here is the the permission:
root@sec [12:32pm] [/var/named]# ls -l
total 9
drwxr-xr-x 7 named named 512 Jun 10 17:43 ./
drwxr-xr-x 22 root wheel 512 Jun 13 05:50 ../
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jun 10 20:19 dev/
drwxr-x--x 2 root named 512 Jun 10 17:44 etc/
-rwxr-xr-x 1 named named 1028 Jun 10 17:43 make-localhost*
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 30 03:47 master/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root named 512 Mar 30 03:47 slave/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jun 10 18:02 standard/
root@sec [12:32pm] [/var/named]# ls -l etc/named.conf
-rw-r----- 1 root named 2208 Jun 10 23:25 etc/named.conf
root@sec [12:33pm] [/var/named]#

Executing named resulted the folloiwng error:
