I have just configured a Local DNS server using the built-in Bind 9.3.1 on a FreeBSD 5.4 machine. My problem is that the machine can cache queries on the localhost and loop back (127.0.0.1) interface only. I have a public static IP on this machine too and I can't seem to query the caching name server from my local network. In Linux, this is no problem. I just can't seem to get Bind to work as in my local network. It works only on the loopback interface. I have checked my firewall but I don't it the problem is with the IPFW firewall. Please shed some light on this issue. -- With best regards and good wishes, Yours sincerely, Tek Bahadur Limbu (TAG/TDG Group) Jwl Systems Department Worldlink Communications Pvt. Ltd.
