I have a situation with pdns-recursor that I need help with. I am running it on 127.0.0.1:53
My configuration is as below: allow-from=192.168.0.0/16 #allow-from= dont-query= config-dir=/usr/local/etc/pdns daemon=yes quiet=yes etc-hosts-file=/etc/hosts export-etc-hosts=yes forward-zones-recurse=.=196.200.16.2,.=196.200.16.27 local-address=127.0.0.1 local-port=53 log-common-errors=yes logging-facility=0 socket-dir=/var/run/ threads=18 trace=on Now, those two IPs listed in forward-zones-recurse are my ISPs DNS servers. The problem is that whenever I do an nslookup for any domains whose DNS records are handled by my ISP, including my ISPs domain name itself, I get a failure. I however get success when I query for domains outside my ISPs DNS servers: Here are my test results: [root@jaribu] /usr/local/etc/pdns# nslookup www.accesskenya.com ;; Got SERVFAIL reply from 127.0.0.1, trying next server ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached [root@jaribu] /usr/local/etc/pdns# nslookup www.gmail.com Server: 127.0.0.1 Address: 127.0.0.1#53 Non-authoritative answer: www.gmail.com canonical name = mail.google.com. mail.google.com canonical name = googlemail.l.google.com.

Or is this something known? -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 "I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler."
