Hello,
I've recently been getting a lot of trouble with SpamAssassin performing
a lot of rDNS lookups which is causing network issues (timeouts etc to
DNS servers).
I am trying to install BIND (or djbdns) as a simple caching nameserver.
Just to take some of the load off the networks DNS servers (my ISPs).
However I am having trouble finding a good tutorial to follow.
I've looked at
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-dns.html
but its mainly going on about being a nameserver which is not what I am
after, wanting to keep it more simple than that.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/etc] $ named -v
BIND 9.3.1
Can anyone suggest me a good tutorial to follow, I've googled but mostly
they are for debain/redhat and some of the commands and files are
different.
DJB's instructions for running a cache on a workstation is the simplest
set of instructions I know of. I've used them for years with great
success o all my servers. Good for web and mail servers as well SA.

I also recommend the SpamAssassin Wiki. Look under the heading
"Performance Tips:".
