I tried to subscribe myself to the bind-user mailing list (using the address at the bottom of the bind docs README file, but I saw this in the log: Dec 15 17:51:15 bullet sm-mta[29432]: jBFNpCvf029430: to=, ctladdr= (1000/100), delay=00:00:03, xdelay=00:00:03, mailer=esmtp, pri=120297, relay=mx.sth1.isc.org. [192.228.89.21], dsn=4.2.0, stat=Deferred: 450 : Recipient address rejected: Greylisted for 180 seconds (see http://isg.ee.ethz.ch/tools/postgrey/help) I went to the website and the only useful information I could glean from it was that my mail server might not be set up correctly. This information doesn't help me as I'd be lying if I said I understood how my mail server works. Intra/Extra-network mail comes in, intra/extra-mail goes out; I can block spam with my /etc/mail/access file; I don't mess with it (I'd probably mess it up.) Anyway, I set up my BIND configuration using "DNS and BIND, 4th Edition" from O'Reilly. I was following the examples in Chapter 4, substituting my domain for the example one. However, when I use my new DNS server the only thing that works correctly is digging 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa. Every other query gets me either NXDOMAIN or SERVFAIL. Here's the /etc/hosts file I want my DNS config based off of: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.1.4 catherine.espersunited.com catherine 192.168.1.3 camille.espersunited.com camille 192.168.1.2 bullet.espersunited.com bullet Here's /etc/bind/named.conf: options { directory "/etc/bind"; pid-file "/var/run/named/named.pid"; }; zone "espersunited.com" in { type master; file "db.espersunited.com"; }; zone "2.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa." in { type master; file "db.2.1.168.192"; }; zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa." in { type master; file "db.127.0.0"; }; zone "." in { type hint; file "db.cache"; }; Here's /etc/bind/db.espersunited.com: $TTL 3h espersunited.com.
