Hi all.
I have a short question about the dns_server option of SA.
Is this option used when SA is called from Amavis and there
isn't any spamd process running?
To be more clear: should I also be forced to add the IP
address of the caching DNS server to /etc/resolv.conf
or the option would be sufficient?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Matteo
No matter how hard I look, I can't find a dns_server option in SA's conf
did you mean dns_available ??
(
http://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.4.x/doc/Mail_SpamAssassin_Conf.txt )
or is this an Amavis option (I don't know Amavis)
doh..
there it is
dns_server
dns_server ip-addr-port (default: entries provided by Net::DNS)
Specifies an IP address of a DNS server, and optionally its port
number. The *dns_server* directive may be specified multiple times,
each entry adding to a list of available resolving name
servers. The
*ip-addr-port* argument can either be an IPv4 or IPv6 address,
optionally enclosed in brackets, and optionally followed by a colon
and a port number. In absence of a port number a standard port
number 53 is assumed. When an IPv6 address is specified along
with a
port number, the address must be enclosed in brackets to avoid
parsing ambiguity regarding a colon separator,
Examples : dns_server 127.0.0.1 dns_server 127.0.0.1:53 dns_server
[127.0.0.1]:53 dns_server [::1]:53
In absence of *dns_server* directives, the list of name servers is
provided by Net::DNS module, which typically obtains the list from
/etc/resolv.conf, but this may be platform dependent. Please
consult
the Net::DNS::Resolver documentation for details.
You don't need to specify one unless you need the specials in the config
