Hey all, I've setup bind9 to be a forwarder only. However I'm not understanding how to confirm requests for queries are being sent through to the forwarded dns servers. Even running in debug mode, I can see the req, but I dont see anything in the debug msg that says its been forwarded on to any of my forwarders.
named.conf.options: options { directory "/var/cache/bind"; forward only; forwarders { 172.20.4.1; 172.20.4.3; 172.20.4.10; }; allow-query { 127.0.0.1; 172.0.0.0/8; }; }; Im run the server in debug and make a request for google.ca from the client. But this doesnt tell me that the request was actually sent to my forwarding servers. I want to be able to confirn this and know that my localhost isnt answering these queries for the client. Perhaps theres a logging config that will show me this? Any ideas? $ sudo named -d9 -g -c /etc/bind/named.conf 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.682 client 172.18.4.214#43801: UDP request 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.682 client 172.18.4.214#43801: using view '_default' 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.682 client 172.18.4.214#43801: request is not signed 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.682 client 172.18.4.214#43801: recursion available 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.682 client 172.18.4.214#43801: query 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.682 client 172.18.4.214#43801: query (cache) ' google.ca/A/IN' approved 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.682 client 172.18.4.214#43801: replace 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.682 clientmgr @0x7f803f2d0760: createclients 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.682 clientmgr @0x7f803f2d0760: create new 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.683 client @0x7f80412ae2a0: create 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.683 createfetch: google.ca A 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.683 client @0x7f80412ae2a0: udprecv 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.684 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): create 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.684 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): join 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.684 fetch 0x7f803f2c5140 (fctx 0x7f8038643010( google.ca/A)): created 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.684 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): start 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.684 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): try 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.684 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): cancelqueries 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.684 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): getaddresses 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.684 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): query 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.684 resquery 0x7f8038649010 (fctx 0x7f8038643010( google.ca/A)): send 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.684 resquery 0x7f8038649010 (fctx 0x7f8038643010( google.ca/A)): sent 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.684 resquery 0x7f8038649010 (fctx 0x7f8038643010( google.ca/A)): udpconnected 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.684 resquery 0x7f8038649010 (fctx 0x7f8038643010( google.ca/A)): senddone 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.715 resquery 0x7f8038649010 (fctx 0x7f8038643010( google.ca/A)): response 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.715 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): answer_response 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.715 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): cache_message 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.715 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): clone_results 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): cancelquery 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): done 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): stopeverything 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): cancelqueries 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): sendevents 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 client 172.18.4.214#43801: send 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 client 172.18.4.214#43801: sendto 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 client 172.18.4.214#43801: senddone 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 client 172.18.4.214#43801: next 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 client 172.18.4.214#43801: endrequest 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 fetch 0x7f803f2c5140 (fctx 0x7f8038643010( google.ca/A)): destroyfetch 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): shutdown 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): doshutdown 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): stopeverything 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): cancelqueries 15-Apr-2010 12:21:32.716 fctx 0x7f8038643010(google.ca/A'): destroy
