# rndc status rndc: connect failed: connection refused # rndc stop rndc: connect failed: connection refused # rndc start rndc: connect failed: connection refused
"connection refused" is the result of a client trying to connect to a port on which nobody is listening.
I don't have bind9 installed on my system so I can't check this directly, but the docs I found via google
(http://www.nominum.com/content/documents/bind9arm.pdf)
suggest that you have to have an rndc.conf file to tell both named and
rndc where to find each other and which shared secret key to use.
Also here is a link with a sample file: http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=323
Hope this helps some.
