I have set up BIND 9.2.0 on my A500 server.
I have all my zones defined and domains.
I ran rndc-confgen and received a rndc.conf file and placed this information into my named.conf file
This information I have is this:

options {
directory "/etc/named.data";
forwarders {
156.42.x.x; 156.42.x.x;
};
};

controls {
inet 127.0.0.1 allow { 127.0.0.1; } keys { rndc-key;
};
};
key "rndc-key" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "uQpY7Fx6vZfhYqk1K6yL9Q==";
};


zone "mcao.maricopa.gov" in {
(Zone information comes at this part)

I also have a rndc.conf file which looks like this:

key "rndc-key" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "uQpY7Fx6vZfhYqk1K6yL9Q==";
};

options {
default-server localhost;
default-key "rndc-key";
};

But at the command line when I try to run rndc start
I get the error message:
"Couldn't find server 'localhost' (h_errno=3)"

Am I missing something?
