Actualy, named is being run from /etc/rc.d/init.d/named - if you look in
/etc/rc.d/rc#.d you will see symlinks to /etc/rc.d/init.d/named.  They
will be S55named to start named, and K45 to stop it.  The links can be
managed with several packages, including chkconfig, and ntsysv.  This is
how most of the system daemons are controlled in RedHat.

As for what you are trying to do, I do not think both versions of named
need to be the same.  But you do have one big problem - the
configuration information has to go into /etc/named.conf, not
/etc/named.boot.  The name and the format of the file changed with the
change from version 4.x to version 8.x.
