named service will not start, connection refused

Hi guys

Our secondary named server has an issue when we start the named service:

Code:
 
[root@nssec root]# service named restart
Stopping named: rndc: connect failed: connection refused
                                                           [FAILED]
[root@nssec root]# service named status
rndc: connect failed: connection refused
[root@ns2 root]#

Any idea what might cause this?

We made no changes on the server.

Tail your /var/log/messages and see what it says.
It can also be that 'named' is trying to write to the file /var/run/named.pid and user named is not allowed to write to that file.
