Hi all!
I am baffled by this problem. I have setup a BIND 9.5.1-P1 service on a Fedora Core 9 server. Clients, that point to this server and our service provider as a secondary, resolve
www.google.com and local names with no problem. Yet they cannot resolve any Microsoft names (i.e. msn.com, msdn.com, hotmail.com, etc.)!! Now, I have my own bias against Micro$**t but I don't know why BIND would. If I place my client(laptop) outside of our firewall so that it only gets our service provider's DNS, Micro$**t's names resolve without any problem.
In fact, this same configuration was used on a previous Fedora Core 6 system without problems. The only change was that I needed to uncomment this line:
query-source port 53;
I have used yum to completely update everything on the server. 'yum update' returns no more updates.
Here is my named.conf file:
Code:
options {
directory "/var/named";
// Uncommenting this might help if you have to go through a
// firewall and things are not working out. But you probably
// need to talk to your firewall admin.
query-source port 53;
};
controls {
inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { rndc_key; };
};
key "rndc_key" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "tsktsktsk";
};
key "DHCP_UPDATER" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "nada";
};
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
allow-transfer { 127.0.0.1; };
allow-update { none; };
file "pz/127.0.0";
};
zone "example.com" {
type master;
notify no;
allow-transfer { 127.0.0.1; };
allow-update { key "DHCP_UPDATER"; };
file "pz/example.com";
};
zone "0.30.172.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
notify no;
allow-transfer { 127.0.0.1; };
allow-update { key "DHCP_UPDATER"; };
file "pz/example-reverse";
};
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
