Um, rbldns /is/ a separate RBL server. > I simply want a process on the mail server listening only on localhost. > There is only one mail server and I have no interest in providing RBL > service to others. My focus here is on simplicity and efficiency. Well, I too run my own private RBL list, and it's really very simple (and efficient, since I send fewer queries out on my ISP link overall than if I used my ISP's own servers for resolution). Here's what I did, leaving out the rbldns part that you've already done, and using stuff that you already have installed: [1] Set up a local dnscache <http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/run-cache.html> on, say, 127.0.0.2. [2] Tell dnscache to send queries for the rbl.mail.premiernet.net domain to your rbldns server: # echo 127.0.0.1 > /service/dnscache/root/servers/rbl.mail.premiernet.net [3] Restart dnscache: # svc -t /service/dnscache Et voila! (Incidentally, since you're using djbdns, you might want to revisit cr.yp.to -- DJB's just revamped the documentation thereof.) - Adrian ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Influence the future of Java(TM) technology.
