I have an odd situation - it seems like I must be missing something but
I
don't know what.
In my local.cf, I had the following lines:
dns_available yes
skip_rbl_checks 0
I noticed that no RBL checks were being run.
If I change dns_available to "test" or comment out the line (same
function),
now the RBL checks are run as expected.
In SA v3.3.0:
Commenting out the line results in using the default setting. The
default setting for 'dns_available' is 'test'. Perhaps there is a DNS
issue on your server.
Thanks, I understood the part about commenting it out.
But my question is this: since 'dns_available test' results in all the
rbls being run, then doesn't that mean that the test is succeeding? In
which case, how is that different than my entering 'dns_available yes'.
In other words, a successful test run by 'dns_available test' is not
producing the same result as 'dns_available yes' - that's where I was
surprised.
'skip_rbl_checks' is defaulted to '0'. You shouldn't have to include it.
Right. When I was troubleshooting and not getting expected results, I
added it to be explicit.
Have you attempted doing a local (on your server) lookup of the IP
address in question? What DNS servers are your server using for
resolution?
