I saw this ones or twice :

@MilesMorales said in DNS Resolver validation (internal or external firewall):

dig +trace pfsense.org

; <<>> DiG 9.10.6 <<>> +trace pfsense.org
;; global options: +cmd
;; Received 28 bytes from 172.16.0.1#53(172.16.0.1) in 33 ms

"dig" worked, but adding the +trace option silenced it completely, there were no results except for these 3 lines.

@MilesMorales said in DNS Resolver validation (internal or external firewall):

installing bind fixed the issues

Did you also uses bind to resolve ? Or just installing it without activation ?

This is one of the rare situation where a reboot of pfSense restored the dig + trace functionality. I never investigated for a reason, I've still a note for myself to find out what happened.

Btw : System > General Setup > DNS Server Override isn't set, right ?
