When i restart Bind9 under Debian 3.1,
i receive this message.

namedrndc: connect failed: connection refused

What is wrong? :mad:

Maybe Bind is running under a wrong user? At the bottom of http://www.howtoforge.com/howto_bind_chroot_debian is a comment that suggests something like that.

I've gone back and read all the stuff twice, I'm getting the error as the OP.

Must be a problem with the BIND user. Do you have

OPTIONS="-u bind -t /var/lib/named"

in /etc/default/bind9?
