BIND DNS not returning records.
-
Ok so I'm trying to use BIND for my DNS and it WAS working great but now its not… When querying a host FQDN is see the following in wireshark:
1 0.000000 192.168.1.240 192.168.1.1 DNS 79 Standard query 0xb0a3 A FreeNAS.rack.center 2 0.000565 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.240 DNS 137 Standard query response 0xb0a3 No such name A FreeNAS.rack.center SOA 192.168.1.1Here is my zone file:

….
Jan 2 12:01:59 named 48149 setsockopt(28, TCP_FASTOPEN) failed with Protocol not available
......You saw the "failed" ?
So copy "setsockopt(28, TCP_FASTOPEN) failed with Protocol not available" into Google and you will know more. -
Ok so how do I downgrade to 9.10.4P2? I don't see any documentation on downgrading packages.
-
Can't tell.
Packages related to OS (FreeBSD) and pfSense use very strict rules.
All depends what you have right now, etc. -
I doubt downgrading the BIND package would do any good, cure the problem, not the symptoms.
-
Ok but more to the issue, BIND IS working (just not the way I need). I can see it accepts the quere and sends a response, just not the correct one. I feel like this is one of those missing ; kind of issues.
-
Don't cross post, and dig up threads from year ago..
What part in your zone file do you think is correct about this?
@ IN NS 192.168.1.1.
So you think its ok to put in an IP for your NS record?
-
-
Nothing from that zone file - but that you would be running bind vs just unbound or or the dnsmasq forwarder seems to point to you know something about dns and need the functionality of bind ;)
Fix your zone up and it will work just fine..
-
This may be against best practice but doesn't this just cause a recursive lookup? Why not just drop the name server IP into
@ IN NS ns1.rack.center. ... ns1 IN A 192.168.1.1vs
@ IN NS 192.168.1.1I feel like i'm still missing something.
-
https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1035.txt
NSDNAME A <domain-name>which specifies a host which should be authoritative for the specified class and domain.
How is 192.168.1.1 a domain-name? I suggest you read the rfc ;)
Run your zone file through checkconf..
Yes your NS record will need a A record for its name pointing to the IP, etc. .. But an IP is not a valid NS record..</domain-name>
