you can use the rndc-confgen utility if your version of bind has it.
it's that simple. if not, use this one (but generate a new key :P)
you take the first part and put it in /etc/rndc.conf
uncomment the second bit and put it in /etc/named.conf
that's all.

jazz% rndc-confgen
# Start of rndc.conf
key "rndc-key" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "ck8kikay4Rdp7rNRsOF8rQ==";
};
options {
default-key "rndc-key";
default-server 127.0.0.1;
default-port 953;
};
# End of rndc.conf
# Use with the following in named.conf, adjusting the allow list as needed:
# key "rndc-key" {
# algorithm hmac-md5;
# secret "ck8kikay4Rdp7rNRsOF8rQ==";
# };
#
# controls {
# inet 127.0.0.1 port 953
# allow { 127.0.0.1; } keys { "rndc-key"; };
# };
# End of named.conf
