Need some help with Cpanel DNS / RNDC Errors

Hi yall,

I'm a cpanel newbie, but have several years of experience in server admin and DirectAdmin control panels. Several of our customers requested Cpanel, and after fighting it for a while, finally gave in. We're configured pretty good, but now there's one nagging issue.

# service named status
rndc: connect failed: connection refused

I've tried several suggestions, including:

/scripts/fixnamed
/scripts/fixndc

But I still end up with:

# /sbin/service named restart
Stopping named:
Starting named: [ OK ]
root@wwwX [/etc]# service named status
rndc: connect failed: connection refused

I've googled solutions for this issue, and found what I thought might be the solution:

I tried:
# cat /etc/rndc.key
key "rndckey" {
...
# cat /etc/rndc.conf
/*
* Sample rndc configuration file.
*/

options {
default-server localhost;
default-key "rndckey";
};

server localhost {
key "rndckey";
};

include "/etc/rndc.key";
I still can't get named restarted, and it's driving me bonkers Need some help with Cpanel DNS / RNDC Errors

Anyone got any suggestions? Anyone (experienced, reputable) available for consultation on a Sunday? Need some help with Cpanel DNS / RNDC Errors I'm pulling my hair out on this. It seems like it WAS an issue in previous editions of the control panel, especially using Fedora - but this is a CentOS install

CentOS 4.2 i686 - WHM X v3.1.0


Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Joe
