here are contents of /etc/resolv.conf
search pps-inc.com
nameserver 216.136.95.2
nameserver 192.168.200.226
===================
the above refers to 2 other machines that are running bind dns
And that might not be the *smart move*
I take it you think I should be running dns on my mailserver?
and the dns pkg of choice is pdns-recursor
install w
# yum install pdns-recursor
# service named stop
# service pdns-recursor start
# chkconfig named off
# chkconfig pdns-recursor on
- all I have to have in the conf is one line -- 'localhost'?
nameserver 127.0.0.1
what about allow-from

I am not an 'expert' with dns
Thanks for the help!
best regards

QMT has been patched with what is pretty much the cream of the crop of

There might be one or two patches from jms which I might consider
including in a future release, but I'm not aware of any patches that
are what I'd consider to be urgent. I'll be revisiting patches when I
put the source code on git, which I plan to do after the QMT 1.5
(COS6) release.
Some resolvers have difficulty resolving DNS records which may be set
up in an peculiar way. (I'm not surprised that a government entity
would be using a peculiar configuration. ;) ) Using a different
resolver may be helpful.
Which dns resolver are you using? Please post contents of
/etc/resolv.conf file. I would expect using pdns-recursor might solve
your problem. You can use pdns-recursor by doing the following:
# yum install pdns-recursor
# service named stop
# service pdns-recursor start
# chkconfig named off
# chkconfig pdns-recursor on
You only need the commands regarding named if you're currently running
a bind resolver (caching-nameserver package is installed).
Then change /etc/resolv.conf to be:
nameserver 127.0.0.1
That should do it.
