[Techtalk] Another call for help, this time DNS

Hi:

	In preparation for the server rebuild, I wanted to master a few
things on the old machine so that the downtime won't be long.  So, now I am
pondering running a local DNS server.  This will relieve me from having to
put hosts files on every PC in the house.  I have read the Linux
Documentation Project's DNS How To.  I think I understand it.  Right now, I
can't seem to get rndc running at all.  It just seems to tell me my
connection is refused.

root at brain:/home/jsd# rndc start
rndc: connect: connection refused
root at brain:/home/jsd# rndc status
rndc: connect: connection refused
root at brain:/home/jsd#

I was wondering if anyone had any ideas, any possible points in the right
direction for documentation, etc.

Thanks
