Hi All, I am having problem with Bind query, but not sure is it client error or server error. Below is the server details.
Server running FreeBSD 8.1 Bind 9.7.0-P3 options { query-source address * port *; use-v4-udp-ports { range 2048 65535; }; recursive-clients 20000; recursion yes; allow-recursion { any; }; allow-query { any; }; allow-transfer { trusted; }; } When I try to dig the domain name, received SERVFAIL status but when +trace initiate, it seem fine -------------- dig @localhost www.kwsp.gov.my ; <<>> DiG 9.7.0-P3 <<>> @localhost www.kwsp.gov.my ; (2 servers found) ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 32501 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;www.kwsp.gov.my.
