hm, IIRC there was said to softlink /etc/named/named.conf to 
/etc/named.conf in the dns-cache section of the NetBSD Guide. however, i 
don't see it there any longer (well, cvsweb is your friend)...

i also saw that -- which was not the case 'til 2.0.2 -- a 
/etc/named.conf exists on a freshly installed system.
