How was lwresd installed? I don't know. Maybe from first install, maybe
it was pulled in with some other package.
How did lwresd mess up the communication between rndc and named(bind9)?
Apparently, lwresd was listening on port 953, so that named couldn't
bind on that port (and thus rndc could not communicate to named).

I guess it depends on who was started first, lwresd or named.
If named is started first, it will listen on port 953, and then
everything should work OK.
As I don't know why I would want to have lwresd, I just removed it.
I should file a bugreport against one of the packages, but don't
do that now, as I don't have time to investigate what package is
wrong etc.
