Hi, I do have a shorewall perimeter firewall connected with a 1GBit Internet connection. In my local lan I do have two bind redhat DNS servers.
Today I got a problem which I'd like to share - maybe you have any cloue what's going on? If I restart shorewall e.g. because I do have a new zone added or an IP blocken or added a rule for some services, sometimes(!) the dns resolving of clients on the same subnet as the dns servers is poor or fails completly. e.g. a dig www.google.con can take from 1 to 1000s of ms. Sometimes restarting the bind deamon solves the problem, sometimes I do have to restart the whole server. But sometimes after a shorewall restart there is no problem resolving names. Any idea?? I'm some sort of frustrated ... :-) Maybe I can tweak shorewall in some kind or pull some traffic information from the firewall as the bind logs aren't very helpfull to me at the moment. So thanks for any tip or hint!
