That bit me too, early in the transition.
The short story: the main BIND configuration file in CentOS 6 is
/etc/named.conf.
The long story: There's some funky bind mounts (where "bind" !=
"BIND", adding to the confusion). Run "mount | grep named" to get the
overall sense of it, but in particular, you'll see
[root]# mount | grep named.conf
/etc/named.conf on /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf type none (rw,bind)
It ends up functioning like a hard link:
[root]# ls -1i /etc/named.conf /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf
3538955 /etc/named.conf
3538955 /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf
All the bind mounts are managed via /etc/init.d/named; see the
mount_chroot_conf() function for the action.
