RNDC connection refused error

cas1106 · 02-23-2005, 09:55 PM

Hello,

I'm trying to set up DNS on a very small LAN. I need this for a class project that I'm working on. The distribution of Linux that I'm running is Fedora Core 2 and the version of BIND is 9.2

The keys in both the named and rndc configuration files match. However, when I try to restart the named dameon I get a rndc connection refused error. When I perform a port scan using nmapfe port 953 is not open.

Is this my problem and if so how can I correct it or open the port.

Thanks

I really hope tha this help you,

the problem is that you are running with some permissions that are not the apropied, a pass trought the same, you must set

For (named.conf) read-only permissions and chown root.named
For (named.pid) read-only permissions and chown named.named

Writhe for my if you have some troble with this.
