Hi all, I've just set up spamassassin on a cable connection that appears to have sporadic DNS timeouts using bind. It shouldn't be so slow that queries timeout, but apparently they are. I'm hoping rbldnsd would provide that additional responsiveness needed.
I've set up rbldnsd before, to be used as a way to query a local RBL. Has anyone configured it as a local caching nameserver, and if so, could you share your config? I'd like it to listen on localhost/53 in place of bind and I would think I would need the root zones in there somewhere, but there doesn't appear to be many examples of doing this out there to reference. Is it a full-fledged nameserver, suitable enough for MX, A, TXT, queries, etc for this purpose? Thanks, Alex
