This command works for BIND 8.x.x, but the similar command

     rndc status

in BIND 9.x.x does not return the version number. This command will
work:

     cd <directory that contains the named executable>
     strings named | grep named (BIND 8.x.x only)
     strings named | grep version (BIND 9.x.x only)
