      @emirefek said in I need HELP on DNS RESOLVER!:

      ubnt.i.lithium.com"

      Did another test just now :
      Flushed dns on my PC.
      Flushed Resolver cache (by setting log details to level 2).
      On my PC :

      C:\Documents and Settings\Gertjan.BUREAU>ipconfig /flushdns

Configuration IP de Windows

Cache de résolution DNS vidé.

      This is what pfSense told me (read from bottom to top) :

      Looks good to me. Not sure when reading the logs, but nslookup on my PC gave an answer.

      Check if you have the same.
      If some device (PC) doesn't show DNS logs on pfSense, then that device has no DNS (so : no answer!) or that device doesn't use pfSense as a DNS.

      No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
      Edit : and where are the logs ??

        They do have a bit of a problem to be honest with their setup... So the roots for .net only show 2 NS for that domain

        But if you ask the SOA for that domain for its NS.. you get back 4 of them.

        This really shoudn't stop you from resolving - but it does reflect a lack of proper dns control..

        Did you run the dig +trace command pfsense?

        This will tell you if pfsense would have a problem with resolving it.. I added the +nodnssec option to make the trace look cleaner - ie not include the dnssec info that roots and .net servers hand out

          Things didn't get any better this morning : https://zonemaster.iis.se/?resultid=87deb85f04a58f9e

          @emirefek : what about testing google.com *** ? So we can focus on your issues, not the one of the guy with severe DNS problems ?

          *** well, maybe google.com isn't perfect neither. This one is.

                Logic ☺ I'm the DNS administrator of that domain.

                But your test tells me that your Resolver (DNS) works fine.
                For what it's worth : when you setup pfSense (that is : assign LAN, WAN) and then you set up your WAN interface any device on your LAN should be able to access the net with any troubles.
                Initially : do not touch firewall rules, VLAN's, DNS, nothing.

                Btw : again : you are not responsible for not resolving of sub domains. The fact that something works on this side of the planet doesn't mean it isn't broken on your side.
                Seek contact with the guy that manages ubnt.i.lithium.com - or put in a DNS host over ride.

                No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
                Edit : and where are the logs ??

                      Then why does your trace not get an answer back ??

                      You should of gotten back the next level - the NS for .net when you did your trace..

                      example
                      net. 172800 IN NS k.gtld-servers.net.
                      net. 172800 IN NS l.gtld-servers.net.
                      net. 172800 IN NS m.gtld-servers.net.
                      ;; Received 846 bytes from 2001:500:1::53#53(h.root-servers.net) in 106 ms

                      Mine talked via ipv6 when I did the trace - but ipv4 would do the same thing.. You just stopped at roots..

                      How did you test talking to them - a ping or an actual dns query?

                      example

                      C:\>dig @m.root-servers.net net NS

                          one question? are you using carp? if so, use the carp vips on dns resolver. for outbound interface you only need localhost.

                              So your problem has nothing to do with dns it seems like, but more your dns rules?

                              Lets see these rules for your centos box network interface on pfsense..

                                  Your DNS ! ONLY ! to pfSEnse rule is UDP only .... 👎

                                  Read this https://serverfault.com/questions/404840/when-do-dns-queries-use-tcp-instead-of-udp and start slapping yourself.

                                  Act upon this information (and also activate DNSSEC, it will work this time ^^).

                                  edit : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System#Protocol_transport - see "DNS Protocol transport"

                                  edit : tip : Instead of "192.168.1.1" as a destination address, use "LAN Address". This will protect you for the next pitfall : the day you introduce IPv6.

                                  No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.

                                    @gertjan Oh. I change it to TCP/UDP and I can solve it now on centos. And I was enable DNSSEC now and I change To LAN Address on rules section.

                                    But I cannot solve damn edgecastcdn.net anyway.

                                      @emirefek said in I need HELP on DNS RESOLVER!:

                                      ig @ns1.edgecastcdn.net edgecastcdn.net NS

                                      Possible that you test also with another PC with some Microsoft OS on your LAN - and then use the 'dig' of Microsoft : nslookup.
                                      Just to be sure that your Centos does things as they should.

                                      Btw : try also disabling for some time your rule number 3 (the DNS block rule).

                                      No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
                                      Edit : and where are the logs ??

                                        your rules are not going to allow centos to query anything other than 192.168.1.1 for dns - sothat dig on centos would never work with that rule in place.

                                          @gertjan I already disable that rule and mate I cannot resolve this domain on pfsense box too. Its not about rules I think.

                                            your trace will show you where you have a problem.. A +trace is exactly what resolver does.. It walks down from roots to the authoritative ns for a domain, then queries an authoritative ns for the domain your looking for for the record you seek..

                                            If you can not resolve thee ns for edgecastcdn.net then no your never going to be able to resolve a record they are authoritative for

                                            Now that you have removed that rule and centos can talk to any dns it wants... Lets see its trace for that record as I posted before.

                                            So how that is resolved

                                            It asks roots hey roots who is NS for .net domain, hey .net NS who is authoritative for edgecastcdn.net, hey hey ns1.edgecastcdn.net what is the A record for cs71.wac.edgecastcdn.net.

                                            You can see that happen in the trace - and exactly what IP got asked..

                                            If pfsense can not do that - then you need to figure out why.. You can sniff when you run the command and see exactly what gets asked and what gets returned.. On pfsense wan.. If you send a query and don't get a response then the problem is upstream.. Maybe your ISP dicks with dns queries? Maybe you have a network problem talking to the NSers for edgecastcdn.net? maybe they block your IP, etc. etc.
