My BIND9.6.0 on FreeBSD 6.2 works fine when I manually start with:

   root@ns2# named -4 -S 1024 -c /etc/namedb/named.conf

But it won't start on boot and no error messages or log.  And it won't start using rndc, it cause error message.  Why does the error shows port 953 when I specified for port 53 in the config?

   rndc: connect failed: 127.0.0.1#953: connection refused


Below are parts of my configs:

/etc/rc.conf:
   named_enable="YES"
   named_flags="-4 -S 1024 -c /etc/namedb/named.conf"
   ....

/etc/rndc.key:
   key "rndc-key" {
        algorithm hmac-md5;
        secret "y9eca/WZydNfi.......................";
   };

/etc/namedb/rndc.conf:
   include "/etc/namedb/rndc.key";  
   options {
        default-server  localhost;
        default-key     "rndc-key";
   };
   server localhost {
        key     "rndc-key";
   };
   ...

/etc/namedb/named.conf:
   include "/etc/namedb/rndc.key";
   acl internals {  
               aa.bb.cc.0/20;
               192.168.1.0/24;
               127.0.0.0/8;
   };
   controls {
        inet 127.0.0.1 port 53 allow { 127.0.0.1; } keys { rndc-key; };
   };
   options {
        pid-file "/var/run/named.pid";
        directory "/etc/namedb";
        statistics-file "/var/log/named/named.stats";
        dump-file "/var/log/named/named.dump";
        zone-statistics yes;
        allow-query { 127.0.0.1; 66.187.80.0/20; };
   };
   logging {
        category "default"   { simple_log; };
        channel simple_log {
                file "/var/log/named/named.log" versions 5 size 20m;
                severity warning;
                print-time yes;
                print-category yes;
                print-severity yes;
   };
   ...
