Slave DNS server + rndc problem

Hi,

I am having a problem using rndc on a new Red Hat enterprise Linux 3 server. I have installed Bind-9.2.4-5 and amended config files and these seem to be transferring zones fine. The named service starts but I cant use rndc to control this - the reload command just runs and then times out.

I have checked my named.conf / rndc.key / rndc.conf files several times and still cannot get rndc to reload.

Please help!

Show me the results of these commands:

ps -Af | grep 'named'
netstat -an | grep ':953'
find / -name rndc.conf
find / -name rndc.key

Tell me what happens when you run this command:

telnet 127.0.0.1 953

Hi,

Thanks for getting back to me but its ok I got my problem fixed..it was a typo in the logging line and this was stopping named from running properly!

Thanks again.
