Hi Tony, Nope, my server is not an open resolver, but a lot of clients are using it :) - Actually one of my customers had a broken netgear device that was making 1000 qps for time-g.netgear.com. Probably some kind of software bug.
I can recommend dnstop to find "bad dns clients" - But dnstop also showed me I'm getting 5-7K qps, and not 700-800 as collectd showed me. Do you think this is too much for a VM? - My VM is only loaded 50% on each core. /Søren -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: Tony Finch [mailto:fa...@hermes.cam.ac.uk] På vegne af Tony Finch Sendt: 4. december 2015 13:34 Til: Søren Andersen <s...@stofa.dk> Cc: bind-users@lists.isc.org Emne: Re: Bind bind high recv-q Søren Andersen <s...@stofa.dk> wrote: > > I'm experiencing some strange problems with my bind installation. - I > notice my bind recv-q is quite high sometimes.. therefore my DNS > clients can experience DNS lookup to take 1-4 secs.

Is your server an open resolver being used as part of a DDoS attack? Do you have compromised client machines running malware that hammers your server? Find out where the queries are coming from using netflow or tcpdump or query logging.
