Help needed setting up DNS on Dachstein-CD V1.02. Have installed the packages djbutils, dnscache and tinydns. Made what I considered to be appropriate settings using the lrcfg menus, saved and rebooted. Host names for machines on the private side have been entered in NETWORK.CONF and DNS set to YES.
The LRP box is configured thus: Eth0=89.10.1.1 Eth1=193.37.83.1 The Eth0 side is connected to the main company network which has a proliferation of windoze boxen one of which is a DNS server on 89.2.7.6 On the Eth1 side I have a SuSe8.0 box (Pingu-serv) 193.37.83.2 and a couple of WinNT3.51 boxes one of which is 193.37.83.81 Running Tcpdump on pingu-serv I get the following 17:07:30.870333 pingu-serv.farside.net.vfo > 193.37.83.1.domain: 58405+ PTR? 81.83.37.193.in-addr.arpa. (43) (DF) 17:07:30.870892 193.37.83.1 > pingu-serv.farside.net: icmp: 193.37.83.1 udp port domain unreachable [tos 0xc0] Pingu-serv is set to get DNS info for both the private network (farside.net) and the company network from 193.37.83.1, the private side of the LRP box. All ipchains rules have been flushed and the default policies set to ACCEPT so I shouldn't be blocking any requests. What is this tcpdump output telling me? I'm a relative newbie so pointing me at some relevant, but easily comprehensible reading matter might assist. To me it just looks like the port which serves the dns requests isn't open.
