Ludovic!
I am so glad to hear from you! Thank you for taking the time to respond.
I am getting the dependency issue when I include perl-Net-DNS in my yum update.
--------<snip>----------
Error: Package: packetfence-4.0.5-2.el6.noarch (@PacketFence)
Requires: perl(Net::DNS) = 0.65-4
Removing: perl-Net-DNS-0.65-4.el6.x86_64 (@base)
perl(Net::DNS) = 0.65
Updated By: perl-Net-DNS-0.66-1.of.el6.x86_64 (of)
perl(Net::DNS) = 0.66
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
--------</snip>---------
So I'm looking into that. However I found something interesting. One of my
registration clients is sending a strange DNS query and every time pfdns sees
it, it crashes.
The query is exactly:
ng="utf-8".umhb.edu
I blocked that IP from sending queries to PF and the service hasn't crashed
since.
I have tried to send this query to my test server to see if I can replicate the
behavior but I need to edit the pcap to make it go to the test server.
I can send you a link to DL the pcap if you are interested in looking at it.
Also, any idea on the dependency issue is most welcome too : )
Thank you again.

Upgrade perl net dns to the latest version from our repo.

Fellow PF users, I am in need of your assistance!
My production PF box is having the pfdns service crash every few seconds.
I am working on getting some pcaps to see if it is network based but I cannot
find anything on the logs. It seems to be failing completely silently.
I would appreciate any assistance you ca
n
offer.
