Thanks Niall, I thought I had tried that approach when I was poking
around with rndc.conf, but apparently I must have done it wrong. The
include statement in rndc.conf does work, however I still do get the
warning - "WARNING: key file (/etc/rndc.key) exists, but using default
configuration file (/etc/rndc.conf)" which seems to be unnecessary but I
am not going to worry about it.
