I have successfully installed a master DNS server on Red Hat Linux 8. When I test it with the host command it works just fine.
When I try to setup DNS on another box (also Red Hat Linux 8) but run it as a slave, I continually get rndc: connect: connection refused I am using the Red Hat BIND Configuration Tool (redhat-config-bind) because the GUI will be friendly for the support staff here, so I am not going to manually edit the named.conf file, although I can edit the named.custom file which gets imported. After reading carefully and multiple times the Red Hat documentation for rndc, I have copied the 256 bit key from the master DNS server and placed it as a second key in the /etc/rndc.conf file, as well as adding a server block to reference the key. Still the same error occurs. I have checked the /etc/named.conf file and the rndc.conf file have matching keys and yes there is the standard: controls { inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { my-key-name; }; }; Any thoughts? Is there some trick to adding a slave DNS? (All the docs suggest it should be easier.) -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
