Hello all,
I recently upgraded my name server (running Red Hat) which upgraded
versions of BIND. The Red Hat has a GUI tool (redhat-config-named), which
I don't use; however it complicates things a bit as I now have to put my
definitions in a file called named.custom. The problem I'm having is when
I now start the service (or stop it) I get the following error:
service named restart
Stopping named: rndc: no key definition for name /etc/rndc.key
[FAILED]
Starting named: [ OK ]
I've read some on the rndc issue and I have read through the man pages but
so far I can't fix this problem. My named.conf (and named.custom) both
have the following:
include "/etc/named.custom"; (this is only in the named.conf)
include "/etc/rndc.key";
I already had an /etc/rndc.key file; however I wasn't sure if it was no
longer valid. I tried the following:
rndc-confgen -a
then tried to restart the daemon but without success
rndc-confgen
having no success with this either.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
James
