This took me a little bit to figure out as well. :)

The details can be found in:
/usr/share/doc/bind-9.1.0/arm/Bv9ARM.ch03.html
(section 3.4.1.2. Administrative Tools)

Short version:
In the file /etc/named.conf:

controls {
        inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys {"key"; };
};
key "key" {
        algorithm hmac-md5;
        secret "Yoursecretkeyhere";
};

In /etc/rndc.conf:

server localhost {
        key     "key";
};

key "key" {
        algorithm       hmac-md5;
        secret "Yoursecretkeyherealso";

Hope that helps,
