[CentOS] Caching DNS question

I have caching-nameserver-7.3-3 installed on a Centos 4.2 system. The named.conf file which comes with the install has the following options:

options { directory "/var/named"; dump-file "/var/named/data/cache_dump.db"; statistics-file "/var/named/data/named_stats.txt"; <comments snipped> };

However, when I look in /var/named/data there is nothing there and for that matter I can't find the dump-file or statistics-file anywhere on the hard drive. I didn't think there was any post install config for caching-nameserver-7.3-3. Is there something I am missing regarding the basic caching-nameserver install that I don't see a dump-file and/or statistics-file?
