We now subscribe to the Spamhaus datafeed service. Being the zones are now running locally under the name zen.dnsbl, I have to rewrite some of the rules in SA. Do I just have to rewrite the relevant parts? I.e.:


Why would you need to do this? You just point your SA machine's resolver to your local DNS server which knows it has an authoritative copy of the zone and serves it up directly. You're not being creative enough with your DNS configuration...

Datafeed zones are used in rbldnsd, not bind. I have a copy of rbldnsd running locally listening on port 54. Bind queries forward to rbldnsd for the Spamhaus queries. To ensure the queries never leave the local server for what ever reason, a local forward-only zone 'dnsbl' was created. Therefore, the queries are zen.dnsbl.
