speed up bind9?
The single dns I am running resolves...eventually. I have not set up a secondary name server (caching) but I plan to. Our proxy server is querying my one-and-only dns but often queries time out. Is there a way to optimize the performance of the dns? The same box handles httpd, postfix, and spamd, so I realize there may not be much else I could do.

Use the forwarders directive to point your nameserver to another DNS server (which should be larger and better connected). However, a lightly loaded DNS server ought to run just fine unless there is a problem somewhere. Are you having path MTU problems, or do you have a firewall somewhere which might be blocking TCP port 53 or something like that? -- -Chuck ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: speed up bind9?
I had read where the bind9 implementation of IPv6 was a bit flaky, so I found that tip and am trying it. Doesn't seem to change things though.

See if that helps. /Henrik ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
