yeah, as I said, I thought it was that beta, I dont use distros versions of key daemons, most are too outdated for my liking, even Slackware and Gentoo, whoich are more current than most. > > > plenty of delayed mail - hostname lookup failures (mostly because of > > URI/DNS BL's), so it certainly works as intended :) > > That sounds unrelated to RRL.

The problem occurred within a minute of enabling RRL, and ended right after disabling RRL. on that date, log files show the version was actually BIND 9.9.4rc1 Now I've read your link, I can perhaps understand more the options and fine tune it, but bout to head out for lunch so, might pla around later this afternoon.
