Hello,
For the last couple of days I've been trying to set up the BIND DNS server (therefore I deal with the files called named.conf & rndc-conf & rndc.key) in Mac OS X and has run into several issues on the correct configuration.
So as a cross-check, I've looked up the named.conf in my FreeBSD machine in which BIND server is running perfectly and noticed that the named.conf which was at the /root/shared, contained simply no entries related to the rndc ("Remote Nameserver Daemon Control"?) It contained just one file rndc.key somewhere but no "controls" entry to include the rndc's <key> and no options line to include the <key-name>
So I wonder if FreeBSD's version of named runs without rndc. Just wondering.
