Having the actual domain that is failing is a great help in isolating the problem. My bet is that you have the query source port fixed to 53 in your nameserver (which is a bad idea for a number of reasons) and the administrators of www.labanquepostale.fr have stupid firewall settings which blocks packets *from* port 53. Both ends are misconfigured. [postmas...@labanquepostale.fr] When you are running a service you shouldn't care what port the request comes from. For DNS in particular there are still lots of nameservers configured to send traffic from port 53 as it only required 1 entry in stateless firewall configuration. A tcpdump with the source port forced to 53. Note there is no reply traffic. 08:54:18.517985 211.30.172.21.53 > 83.206.67.133.53: 40497 [1au] A? www.labanquepostale.fr. ar: OPT UDPsize=2048,DO=1 (51) 08:54:23.531571 211.30.172.21.53 > 83.206.67.133.53: 40497 [1au] A? www.labanquepostale.fr. ar: OPT UDPsize=2048,DO=1 (51) 08:54:28.556952 211.30.172.21.53 > 83.206.67.133.53: 40497 [1au] A? www.labanquepostale.fr. ar: OPT UDPsize=2048,DO=1 (51) A tcpdump with letting the OS choose the source port (60883).
