DNS Log Errors: unexpected RCODE (REFUSED)


Hi,

I am getting these errors in /var/log/messages after I entered my ISP's DNS servers as forwarders in my named.conf

forwarders {

// query-source address * port 53;

Any ideas? I'm a bit stumpted currently.

I'm guessing that you're still able to resolve the IP address though. It looks as though your ISP's nameserver is asking for more than just the IP address and part of the query is being refused.
