I'm having issues running rbldnsd (rbldnsd-0.996) on Linux. Tried two different varients (SUSE 10.0 & RH 4 AS) and both lock up if I use the '-f' option, no problem with '-f' when running on HP-UX.
The problem occurs during a zone data reload, the parent forks off a child to answer requests while it reloads (what the -f does) then when it's done and tries to reap the child it goes into a spin-loop.
Anybody else seen this, know of a solution other than the workaround of not using the '-f' option?

You may want to ask on the rbldnsd mailing list:
rbldnsd at corpit. ru
FWIW rbldnsd runs fine under FreeBSD.
