We are trying to setup a local rbldnsd with rsynced data to answer the DNS queries, but the rbldnsd is not responding.
I started it manually with this command:
% /usr/local/sbin/rbldnsd -u rbldns -b 127.0.0.1/53 -w /usr/local/etc/rbldnsd sc.surbl.org:dnset:sc.surbl.org.rbldnsd ws.surbl.org:dnset:ws.surbl.org.rbldnsd
It started with no errors, and with an expected output (as seen on http://www.surbl.org/rbldnsd-howto.html):
rbldnsd: listening on 127.0.0.1/53 rbldnsd: dnset:sc.surbl.org.rbldnsd: 20040602 131207: e/w=504/0 rbldnsd: dnset:ws.surbl.org.rbldnsd: 20040602 131208: e/w=12297/0 rbldnsd: zones reloaded, time 0.2e/0.0u sec rbldnsd: rbldnsd version 0.992 (7 Mar 2004) started (1 socket(s), 2 zone(s))
If I test our cached DNS system:
% nslookup adulteroticfiction-MUNGED.com.sc.surbl.org 127.0.0.1 *** Can't find server name for address 127.0.0.1: Query refused *** Default servers are not available
Run rbldnsd on another address set up in your ifconfig, such as 10.11.12.13 . If you're using BIND 8, then BIND is probably trying to listen on 127.0.0.1. (Is your BIND version 8 or 9?)
