RE: [vox-tech] rndc: connect failed: connection refused

["Ehrhart, Jay" <ehrhart@ycoe.MAPSorg>]

I have seen this on my Red Hat 8.0 DNS server.  Most of the time I can /etc/init.d/named stop and then start will work.  Sometimes though I have to send a kill and the start the service.  I don’t know why and I am way over worked to find out why.  You can also do the Windows thing and reboot the box.

hello again.

one of my DNS box is up and running well. however, issuing a restart or a status named command

will give out:

 

rndc: connect failed: connection refused

 

i cannot stop the named BUT i can start it well. reload fails and status fails also.

RH 9. and i have this.

bind-9.2.1-16
bind-utils-9.2.1-16

 

anyone with the same experience? AMAP, i do not want to have a BIND upgrade.

please advise.
