Here are the errors from the DNS machine on the network: Aug 9 22:55:58 backup named[316]: denied query from [10.25.165.1].58547 for "1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" IN Aug 9 22:55:58 backup named[316]: denied query from [10.25.165.1].47460 for "1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" IN The machine "backup" is 10.25.165.5. Here is the content of /etc/hosts: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost Here are the contents of /etc/resolv.conf: nameserver 10.25.162.1 nameserver 10.25.163.1 nameserver 10.25.165.5 domain tecdigital.net I don't understand why the machine 10.25.165.1 is doing a reverse query on 127.0.0.1? Shouldn't it look first in /etc/hosts and find the result? The machine in question is a 4.3-RELEASE machine (releng_4_3), with an uname -a: FreeBSD www.tecdigital.net 4.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE #0: Mon Aug 6 15:07:51 CDT 2001 madd@tecdigital.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/TEC-DIGITAL i386 The DNS machine (10.25.165.5) is configured to only allow queries to the zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" to the localhost. Please help me, I'm stumped. Sincerely, Mario Doria To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
