A little birdy told me that Ed Morrison said:

my DNS servers all survived the upgrade fine... with one caveat... the file "/etc/rndc.conf" got updated without any ".rpmnew" preservation taking place... as such, for servers to correctly reload their maps and other such tasks via "rndc" i needed to update that file to re-include the correct information for the key...
just figured it deserved a mention...

Strange, I had no such problem. I seem to have an rndc.conf.rpmnew on both of my name servers, and the original is completely safe. I wonder what is mis-firing on the broken upgrades?
