I was trying to consolidate my rulebase this weekend and found that what I
thought should work didn't. I'm probably missing something really simply
here, but I can't find it. I poured through the manuals and couldn't find
any help (surprise surprise), nor could I find anything on phoneboy. Any
help would be greatly appreciated!

Here's the objects I have defined (fake ip's of course):

Type                    Name            Data
workstation             ns1             192.168.10.1/24
workstation             ns2             192.168.10.2/24
service group   DNS             dns-udp, dns-tcp
host group              ns_servers      ns1, ns2
network         outside 0.0.0.0/0

Originally I had the following 2 rules defined to let dns traffic to
specific hosts:

Source          Dest            Service Action
------          ----            ------- ------
ns_servers              outside DNS             Allow
------------------------------------------------
outside         ns_servers      DNS             Allow

I tried to merge this into one rule as:

Source          Dest            Service Action
------          ----            ------- ------
ns_nservers             ns_servers      DNS             Allow
outside         outside

This caused all dns traffic to be dropped (per the last rule).
