  Hi! Thanks for the quick response. I now understand the rndc error. As for the other error:
  
  ==========
  
  Dec 3 21:40:52 localhost named[527]: couldn't open pid file '/usr/local/bind9/var/run/named.pid': No such file or directory
  Dec 3 21:40:52 localhost named[527]: exiting (due to early fatal error)
  
  ===========
  
  Why is it trying to put the pid file under the install directory. I thought the default configuration for the named.pid was in /var/run?
  
  Did I miss something in the compilation?
  
  Any input is greatly appreciated.
  
  Thanks!
  Paolo

  Create folder:
  mkdir /var/pid/
