        Will try it…

        And how can I check if the DNSSEC is working correctly?

          Go to http://test.dnssec-or-not.org/ and Borat should give you the thumbs up or

          dig @ <ip>edu +dnssec

          Look for the flags section which should contain 'ad' in them. For example:

          ; <<>> DiG 9.6.2-P2 <<>> @192.168.1.14 edu +dnssec
          ; (1 server found)
          ;; global options: +cmd
          ;; Got answer:
          ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 60486
          ;; flags: qr rd ra ad; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 4, ADDITIONAL: 1

            Hey wagonza,

            thanks for the answer. I now get Borat, so this looks good. Still, I can't resolve my local hostnames as before with dnsmasq.
            What kind of info do you need? It is working with dnsmasq…

            Thanks for your help!

                  Here it does NOT run. Say, at http://test.dnssec-or-not.org/ i don't see Borat. I reinstalled unbound, no change.
                  Nor local hosts resolve.

                  unbound-checkconf shows this:
                  unbound-checkconf: no errors in /usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound.conf

                    Had another problem with the package. Sometimes after the dhcp lease is over, the client doesn't get my pfSense box as a DNS server, but the DNS servers I provided in general settings. Then my clients can't connect to the internet, because dns is not allowed for them, only to the pfSense box. Why do these servers sometimes get pushed to the clients?

                      Updated to version 1.2.2 and still my clients do not get the pfSense LAN ip address as the dns server but the ones configured in general dns settings. Why is that? dnsmasq correctly pushes my pfSense LAN IP to the clients…

                            I updated today pfSense 2.0-BETA4 (i386) built on Mon Nov 22 02:54:15 EST 2010 and unbound to v 1.22. But no luck:

                              heh :) thx. I figured out the dhcp DNS problem. Its a directly related to DNSmasq been disabled in the xml config. Will think about how we can adjust this and let you know the status over the course of the week.

Looks like DNSMasq wasnt shutdown - will have to add some additional safety belts.

What does dig @ <ip>edu +dnssec return? Have a look at the flags section in the returned output it should contain a 'ad' flag.
Piccard could be cached.</ip>

                                  heh :) thx. I figured out the dhcp DNS problem. Its a directly related to DNSmasq been disabled in the xml config. Will think about how we can adjust this and let you know the status over the course of the week.

                                  Cool! Waiting for an update then. Until then I'll just use dnsmasq as before…

                                    on console, still get error message
                                    [2.0-BETA4][root@rserver.local]/root(4): unbound -v
                                    [1291085668] unbound[2106:0] notice: Start of unbound 1.4.7.

                                    [1291085668] unbound[2106:0] fatal error: could not open ports

                                    coonection to net works, but resolve still slow then with dnsmasq

                                    i think use dnsmasq till get update
                                    thanks to provide unbound package

                                        hello wagonza! Hope your vacation was nice and groovy…

                                        I have a little(?) proposal: Could you put the unbound-logs separate? Maybe in that section "package-logs"?
                                        It is logging really lot and so the normal syslog is full of unbound-log-entries, which make it somewhat difficult to find special entries. Say, i have to open a console to view directly at the log. 1000 lines are not enough at the webgui... (Not a big clue, but would make that thing easier.)
