That looks fine.

You need something like this:
//
// Key for use with rndc
//
include "/etc/rndc.key";
// Allow control from localhost using key only.
controls {
inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { "rndckey"; };
};

I'd look at both /etc/named.conf and /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf
and see merge any changes you've made into
/var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf. Only then delete /etc/named.conf and
make the symlink.
