$ rpm -q --scripts bind
preinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
/usr/sbin/groupadd -g 25 named >/dev/null 2>&1 || :;
/usr/sbin/useradd -c "Named" -u 25 -g named \
-s /sbin/nologin -r -d /var/named named >/dev/null 2>&1 || :;

In other words, named should have been added by the bind package.
Does the Original Poster have that installed? Does he have
caching-nameserver, NetworkManager, or anything else that depends on it?
If bind isn't installed, I'd recommend doing a
yum install bind
If the Original Poster didn't have bind installed, and hadn't tried
installing any RPM's with --force, and hasn't mucked about manually,
*and* has all the latest updates installed, this probably ought to go
into bugzilla.
Hope this helps,
James.
