dhcp 4.3.2, bind 9.10.2, unable to get ddns to work

Okay, I've been working on this for hours. I had it working on the old ubuntu machine (that I hate otherwise). I know about the key...
I have carefully set everything up according to the man. I have tweaked and worked with rndc (it is workingfine).
No matter what I do, dhcpd is not allowed to update the zone file with forward map.
I don't have typos... everything else is working. I have the file permissions wide open. I have dhcpd in named group.
I'm pulling my hair out and ready to live without local name resolution. You are my last hope OB1.
Is there any connection with the polkit error below for the dhcpd process? I worked on polkit for a bit with no luck.
For what ever reason it seems broken. I can post the conf files... What ever, I'm exhausted.

Re: dhcp 4.3.2, bind 9.10.2, unable to get ddns to work

The problem was that named wasn't listening to 127.0.0.1.
i.e.:

options {
    ... 
    listen-on {
      127.0.0.1;
      ...
    };  
    ...
};
