+Q: I get the error message "named: capset failed: Operation not permitted"
+when starting named.
+
+A: The capset module has not been loaded into the kernel. See insmod(8).
+
+
+Q: I get "rndc: connect failed: connection refused" when I try to run
+ rndc.
+
+A: This is usually a configuration error.
+
+ First ensure that named is running and no errors are being
+ reported at startup (/var/log/messages or equivalent). Running
+ "named -g <usual arguements>" from a terminal can help at this
+ point.
+
+ Secondly ensure that named is configured to use rndc either by
+ "rndc-confgen -a", rndc-confgen or manually. The Administators
+ Reference manual has details on how to do this.
+
+ Old versions of rndc-confgen used localhost rather than 127.0.0.1
+ in /etc/rndc.conf for the default server. Update /etc/rndc.conf
+ if necessary so that the default server listed in /etc/rndc.conf
+ matches the addresses used in named.conf. "localhost" has two
+ address (127.0.0.1 and ::1).
+
+ If you use "rndc-confgen -a" and named is running with -t or -u
+ ensure that /etc/rndc.conf has the correct ownership and that
+ a copy is in the chroot area. You can do this by re-running
+ "rndc-confgen -a" with appropriate -t and -u arguements.
