I'm current trying to configure bind as per the handbook. Everything 
appears to be working except the Smart Signing section. As far as I can 
tell I've followed all the instructions correctly however I get the 
below error.  Initially I thought I'd missed something so I started 
again from scratch but ended up with the same issue.

Nov 26 20:38:51 web01 named[15623]: dns_dnssec_keylistfromrdataset: 
error reading private key file /domain///.com.au/RSASHA256/13095: file 
not found
Nov 26 20:38:51 web01 named[15623]: dns_dnssec_keylistfromrdataset: 
error reading private key file /domain.///com.au/RSASHA256/63499: file 
not found

The zone is configured as follows:

zone "/domain.///com.au" {
         type master;
         key-directory "/etc/namedb/keys";
         update-policy local;
         auto-dnssec maintain;
         file "/etc/namedb/master//domain///.com.au.db.signed";
};

and the KSK and ZSK files have been moved to the "/etc/namedb/keys" folder.

Please note I do not get any errors if I remove the following:

         key-directory "/etc/namedb/keys";
         update-policy local;
         auto-dnssec maintain;

Bind is version BIND 9.8.4-P2 on FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE
