Hello,

Please try the following within a terminal session

/scripts/fixndc
/etc/init.d/named stop
/etc/init.d/named start

rndc reload

If you still get get an error (connection refused) when reloading named with 'rndc reload'
do

tail -100 /var/log/messages and let us see the output.

I have tried the fixes above but still get this error when trying to add my A records for the DNS.
Code:
Adding an A entry for nameserver ns1.domain.com

Anyone have a clue on how to solve this issue? Or is it normal?

No not normal. Your zone files won't be updated until this issue is fixed. Assume you have searched this forum and tried the available fixes? Looks like you are running RH9?

I have ran multiple fixes through out this forum. I am running fedora core 2. Nothing has seemed to help.

Thanks found a little note on there.... this is what fixed it...


If you are using Fedora you should also nano /etc/sysconfig/named and comment out the 'ROOTDIR=' (put a # in front of it)
All is better now...

Not sure but do you think it could have something to do with the following??? near 'root.tcpipinc..servermatrix.com.': empty label
That was the name that the server company gave the box. I have had them change the name of the box to wh2.tcpip-inc.com but I see that it still shows up here as root.tcpipinc..servermatrix.com

Thanks to hostinglife.com and whoever contributed the below!

RNDC Error Fix
Some installations of WHM/CPanel come with a RNDC error. This error is somewhat common now, and is easily fixed by a couple of methods. Before your name servers work you need to fix the NDC Error. The RNDC Error is nothing major, and should not take more than 15 minutes (if that) to fix. Please read below to fix the RNDC Error.

Simple Fix

Login to your server through SSH
Type:
cd /scripts
Type:
./updatenow
Type:
./fixndc
The above error will fix certain aspects of the RNDC Error, and sometimes fix all the problems. However during certain installations the problem will still exist, this is where RND Error Fix #2 comes in.

RNDC Error Fix #2

Login to your server through SSH.
Type:
pico /etc/rndc.conf
Search for "rndc-key" and replace it with "rndckey"
CTRL-W is how to search in PICO.
CTRL-X Y to save and exit
Type:
pico /etc/named.conf
Search for "rndc-key" and replace it with "rndckey"
CTRL-W is how to search in PICO.
CTRL-X Y to save and exit
After that type:
/scripts/fixnamed
After that type:
/scripts/fixndc
If step #5 still produced an error type:
/scripts/fixndc
There should be no error now.
Now we will restart named (BIND)
Type: service named restart
If you get an error simply restart again.
Type: service named restart
Now you should get no error...
