Symptoms :
I keep getting this error every time I try to start the named daemon service :
[root@centos62 ~]# service named start Starting named: [FAILED]
Then i checked at the /var/log/messages, i get the following messages :
[root@centos62 ~]# tail -f /var/log/messages
Feb 6 21:51:22 centos62 named[1341]: loading configuration from '/etc/named.conf' Feb 6 21:51:22 centos62 named[1341]: /etc/named.conf:7: open: /etc/rndc.key: permission denied Feb 6 21:51:22 centos62 named[1341]: loading configuration: permission denied Feb 6 21:51:22 centos62 named[1341]: exiting (due to fatal error)
Solutions :
Change the owner and the files permission of the ‘/etc/named.conf’ :
[root@centos62 ~]# chown named:named /etc/rndc.key [root@centos62 ~]# chmod 644 /etc/rndc.key
Start named services :
[root@centos62 ~]# service named start Starting named: [ OK ]
