This suggests one of the following problems: 1. 95.102.17.107 is pointing to your nameserver in its resolver configuration, but your server doesn't allow them to use you as a resolver (the IP isn't in your allow-recursion and allow-query-cache ACL). 2. The plus.com zone is delegated to your server, but you're not properly configured to serve it. It doesn't look like #2. The zone is delegated to ns1.force9.net and ns2.force9.net, and they appear to be responding properly. -- Barry Margolin, bar...@alum.mit.edu Arlington, MA *** PLEASE don't copy me on replies, I'll read them in the group *** _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
