Yes, most likely, but I was looking for more definitive proof that the circuit wasn't doing what it should be (or at least, what I expect). I also wasn't sure if it was a tuning issue (network, bind, server itself, etc). > I'd be tempted by Mr. Clegg's suggestion to spin up a VPS somewhere > with decent connection, which will at least offload a lot of retries. I built an encrypted tunnel using socat with a VPS and a decent connection and the bind SERVFAIL messages almost entirely went away. The remaining ones seem to be actual SERVFAIL problems. > Then you'll probably have a whole new can of worms to investigate, but > the worms will definitely tell you something. :) Yeah, socat isn't a good permanent solution. Looks like I'll get libreswan going. Building a VPN for a specific port/service is a little more difficult, I believe. _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
