[SOLVED] Another OpenDNS question

[LinuxLover]

I need some extra eyes lookup over my setup  ::)

I'm running 2.3.2-RELEASE-p1 (amd64) with the following setup

System / General Setup

DNS server settings:
    server1: 208.67.220.220 WAN_DHCP
    server2: 208.67.222.222 WAN_DHCP
    DNS Server Override: disabled
    Disable DNS Forwarder : enabled

Services / DNS Resolver /General Settings

Enable DNS Resolver : disabled

Services / DNS Forwarder

Enable DNS forwarder : enabled
    DHCP Registration : enabled
    Static DHCP : enabled
    Prefer DHCP : disabled
    DNS query forwarding : disabled
    Require domain : enabled
    Do not forward private reverse lookups : enabled
    interfaces LAN, localhost
Services / DHCP Server /LAN

DHCP Static Mappings for this Interface
    List of my local hosts

Running on pfSense the Diagnostics / DNS Lookup
external lookups work fine, but local lookups fail.

On hosts, local lookups are fine, but nslookup's from pfsense bypass opendns

What have I setup wrong?

"but nslookup's from pfsense bypass opendns"

Did you setup to pfsense to ask itself?  Ie the loopback address 127.0.0.1?  Or did you check that to disable? Did you turn off dhcp dns override via dhcp?  That should be unchecked.

Thanks johnpoz.

Turned out I had disabled the DNS Resolver and saved the setting, but did not apply the change.
Wen you leave the page and apply other pages, this page is not applied. You need to apply each page, if it's changed.  :-[
I also disabled the [b]Disable DNS Forwarder setting as you recommended.
All seems to be working fine now.

Thank you, appreciate your time and effort!
