    I read hrough the whole thread. I can't find what I do after i make deinstall/install bind9. I have freebsd 5.x so i shouldn't have to make a /dev/random because 5.1 doesn't use that anymore. And I can't find any port called rndc-confgen either. Now I'm getting this error

    Error reloading bind on cp1: rndc: neither /etc/namedb/rndc.conf nor /etc/namedb/rndc.key was found Add Complete

    Ok I've been messing around with it and I finally got it to stop saying "neither /etc/namedb/rndc.conf nor /etc/namedb/rndc.key was found" But after restarting named I get these errors.

    Looks like your getting there.

    You need to run,

    rndc-confgen -u /dev/urandom

    Then paste the result in the top of your named.conf file.
    If you get a not found error when running rndc-confgen -u /dev/urandom
    you need to reboot and run again.

    Is this the last entry in named.conf ? Make sure to hit enter after };

    should look like;

    zone "domain.com" {
    type master;
    file "/etc/namedb/domain.com.db";
    };

    I found this to work:

    # rndc-confgen -r /dev/urandom > /etc/namedb/rndc.conf

    This will create a new rndc key (Actually the whole configuration file hence the pipe to a file.

    # rm -f /etc/rndc.conf;ln -s /etc/namedb/rndc.conf /etc/rndc.conf

    Next, remove /etc/rndc.conf if it is there. Then create a symbolic link from /etc/namedb/rndc.conf

    Edit /etc/rndc.conf and /etc/named.conf to both either have rndckey or rndc-key.

    # /scripts/fixndc;/scripts/restartsrv named

    If named restarts with no errors run

    # /scripts/rebuildnamedconf;/scripts/upcp --force;/scripts/restartsrv named

    Hopefully this will help you out.
