> rndc: connect failed: connection refused

Here is what works for me:

cd /var/named/chroot/etc
rndc-confgen > rndc.key
chown root.named rndc.key

vi rndc.key and remove everything except the key section.

vi /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf and
copy the rndckey from /var/named/chroot/etc/rndc.key
into this section

key "rndckey" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "[RNDC key]";
};

I hope this helps,
Neil
