I'm experiencing strange behaviour with Bind running inside a jail. I'm running 5.2.1 current in the jail. Thinks are working, but poorly. Lookups for my local machines work perfectly. Some remote lookups work fine (yahoo, google, etc...). However, many lookups time out, but will succeed after a few tries. I'm doing all this from home (comcast cable internet). Anyway, I'm not sure what to do. Sniffing the network doesn't seem to help much. Queries and requests are reaching the right hosts and ports. Thanks for any help.

I don't know if this applies to you, but about yesterday my PC's stopped working w/r/t DNS lookups. Comcast changed the IP addresses of their DNS servers. For a while they had one new one, but one of the old ones worked. But yesterday the old IP address stopped working completely, forcing me to update my configuration files...
