Addon Domains not being added

[Cyber911]

Hi,

I've got a (little?) problem with addon Domains. Everytime I try to add cno Domains it says this:

===========
Addon Domain Addition

ndc: connect failed: connection refused Domain already exists, it was not added.
Cannot determine nameserver ip for xyz.com. Please make sure that it is registered with a valid domain name register.

xyz.com has been setup. It can be accessed via the subdomain xyz.maindomain.com . Ftp access has been granted with the username care and the password *** .
===========

The part with the mailforwarding etc. is not displayed, the httpd.conf entry is added without the "ServerAlias www.xyz.com xyz.com" and The Domain is not displayed anywhere else.

When I try it a few (hundred?) times again sometimes it works...
But I don't know why! The Domain is registered, the DNS entry exists since a few weeks and points to this server...

What am I doing wrong?
The message "ndc: connect failed: connection refused" is diplayed everytime, cause we are not running a DNS Server on that machine...

And "Domain already exists, it was not added." is displayed cause this was the 30th try or so and as I said the httpd.conf entry allready existed...

would be nice to get a feedback from someone

First off:

To correct your "ndc: connect failed" error - I would edit /etc/named.conf and change the first line so that:

key "rndc-key" {

reads like this :

key "rndckey" {

Then restart BIND

Secondly for the domain already exists message probably check the following:

1. Check the zone files
2. Chech to see if the domain is still in /etc/localdomains
3. Check to see if there is an entry in /valiases/
4. Check no domain entry still in httpd.conf

Then try again.

Anybody else have any input to this as Ive probably neglected to add something else here.

i get the similar problem commonly i have 3 servers the 2 are linked to the master. on the master and 1 child i see a line in the named.conf

key "rndckey" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "big long key";
};

but in the 2nd child i dont have this similar line.
