The same box also runs apache2. I am confused about a few things. I am assigned an IP via DHCP, and I use dns2go for dynamic DNS. I guess my problem is keeping things straight. For example, now that I have joshualokken.com, and am using dns2go, do I use their name servers exclusively, or do I still need the name servers assigned by my ISP? I am trying to write working firewall rules, and something's not right. Here's what I have: # $ns1="isp.name.server.1" $ns2="isp.name.server.2" # ... $fwcmd $flags add allow udp from $ns1 to any in via $oif $fwcmd $flags add allow udp from $ns2 to any in via $oif # ... Do I need to make additional entries to allow dns2go through, or do I need to use dns2go's name servers exclusively, allow them, and do away with the isp name servers? I am confused, any help is appreciated, thanks. Joshua Lokken One doesn't have a sense of humor.
