Problem with rndc.key (invalid key)

[Chris Buxton]

Since you added the controls statement referencing the key, did you  
also add the key statement to named.conf? Make sure to add it before  
the controls statement.

rndc.key is only read in the absence of a controls statement. And  
named does not read the other configuration file, rndc.conf.
