How do I run BIND 9 on Apple Mac OS X?
</para>
</question>
<answer>
<para>
If you run Tiger(Mac OS 10.4) or later then this is all you need to do:
</para>
<informalexample>
<programlisting>
% sudo rndc-confgen > /etc/rndc.conf</programlisting>
</informalexample>
<para>
Copy the key statement from /etc/rndc.conf into /etc/rndc.key, e.g.:
</para>
<informalexample>
<programlisting>
key "rndc-key" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "uvceheVuqf17ZwIcTydddw==";
};</programlisting>
</informalexample>
<para>
Then start the relevant service:
</para>
<informalexample>
<programlisting>
% sudo service org.isc.named start</programlisting>
</informalexample>
<para>
This is persistent upon a reboot, so you will have to do it only once.
</para>
</answer>

<para>
Alternatively you can just generate /etc/rndc.key by running:
</para>
<informalexample>
<programlisting>
% sudo rndc-confgen -a</programlisting>
</informalexample>
<para>
Then start the relevant service:
</para>
<informalexample>
<programlisting>
% sudo service org.isc.named start</programlisting>
</informalexample>
<para>
Named will look for /etc/rndc.key when it starts if it
doesn't have a controls section or the existing controls are
missing keys sub-clauses. This is persistent upon a
reboot, so you will have to do it only once.
