I'll assume that BIND is actually running. You need to give the path to
your ndc channel with the "-c" option to ndc. Here how I dump stats on
my nameservers:
/usr/local/sbin/ndc -c /var/bind.root/r/ndc/ndc stats
If you don't know where your ndc channel is, look in you conf file for
something like:
controls {
unix "/ndc/ndc"
perm 600
owner 0
group 0;
};
...and use the path in double quotes after "unix".

The doctrine of human equality reposes on this: that there is no man
really clever who has not found that he is stupid.
