I did, I create rndc.conf and rndc-key, but still, got the same error.
Is this 'connetion refused' error coused by uninstalling Bind9 from
dselect and re-compile the source code? That is what I did with my Bind
after all...

how to check whether the lwresd is runing on my box? and how to kill it?

I checked with 'ps aux' but nothing with 'named' on the list, so I guess
named is not running after all.
I start '/etc/init.d/bind9 start', everything looks normal, but when I
'ps aux' no named/bind system running.
The doco suggest that I add /usr/local/bind/bin to LOCAL_PATH and
/usr/local/bind/man to LOCAL_MAN in /etc/profile (and I export it) but
nothing in my system can run /usr/local/bind/bin files. What happen
here? Am I make mistake in Debian (that not suppose in /etc/profile?)
I missed two files: /var/run/named.pid and /var/run/named.stats. can I
create these files manually (touch) and chown it as named:named? Will
this method works?
Thanks.
