A. Schulze via Unbound-users:
stub-zone:
name: "10.in-addr.arpa."
stub-addr: ${nameserver1-ip}
stub-addr: ${nameserver2-ip}
Everything is fine as long as both nameservers are up.
If one server fail (simple case: host up, nameserver down) client
get "no servers could be reached" or similar answers from local
stubresolver.
I have an update.
It works as expected if I use "forward-zone + forward-addr" statements.
In that case my config looks like this:
forward-zone:
name: "10-in-addr.arpa."
forward-addr: ${nameserver1-ip}
forward-addr: ${nameserver2-ip}
Now I could switch of one of both nameservers. As long as one nameserver is up
any question, even for un-cached data, is answered immediately.
Am I right that "forward-zone" is not the correct setup to point
unbound to a authoritative nameserver?
So maybe there is still a bug somewhere in unbound-1.5.9 ...
