I am trying to track down a bit of strange behavior. Not sure if anyone else sees this.
I tend to run named in the foreground and in debug level 2 for a while after I compile it. If all looks good then I can run it as a service daemon in the usual way. This means I run it like so : bash-3.00# /opt/csw/sbin/named -4 -c /etc/opt/csw/named.conf \ > -d 2 -f -g -n 1 -p 53 -u named Note the -d 2 there. 29-Sep-2010 17:31:43.715 starting BIND 9.7.2-P2 -4 -c /etc/opt/csw/named.conf -d 2 -f -g -n 1 -p 53 -u named . . . Everything seems to be fine until I saw this after 20 minutes or so : 29-Sep-2010 17:40:35.964 error (unexpected RCODE REFUSED) resolving '243.136.240.111.dun.dnsrbl.net/A/IN': 66.11.124.26#53 29-Sep-2010 17:40:35.965 client 66.225.151.243#45979: query failed (SERVFAIL) for 243.136.240.111.dun.dnsrbl.net/IN/A at query.c:4650 At this point it is just hung.

That can't be right. If I try to start named in the foreground with anything for -d debuglevel > 2 the process dumps core right away with a segfault. The whole service is up and running fine right now with debuglevel 1 and there has been no issue. I can go to another maching and use dig to trigger the same response over and over : 29-Sep-2010 18:14:46.174 client 66.225.151.227#19653: query failed (SERVFAIL) for 243.136.240.111.dun.dnsrbl.net/IN/A at query.c:4650 This is very odd behavior. Anyone have any thoughts on this at all? Dennis _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
