The magic is in /etc/bind/rndc.conf (and the corresponding key in /etc/bind/named.conf). Create the magic using rndc-confgen. In my case, lwresd was somehow installed, and messing up the communication. Removing lwresd (and kill-ing the process that stayed on even after I removed the package) solved it. Oh, and after you've setup rndc.conf and named.conf, you need to kill named once manually, so that it re-reads the named.conf information. -- joostje -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
