Just like Luis and Ray I will also be doing some guessing, it seems that you have had this problem earlier, according to the mail archive - http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=3802081&forum_id=5483 - which assumes you are still using the Dachstein CD. It's mentioned in the docs that you should increase the cache more than its default size of 1 Meg if you are running a large network. http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/cstein/Packages/dnscache.htm (Nr.6) > > here's my network looks like : > ------------- ----------------------- > > |leaf-router| |RH9 squid & dnscachex| > to -----|eth0 eth1|---|HUB|--|eth0 eth1| > internet| | | | > ------------- ----------------------- > | > | > |switch| > | | | > subnet A - | | | > subnet B --- | | > subnet C ------| > > everytime i stop dnscachex, the messages also stop. am > i having dns abuse from my internal network? or is it > because there are too many clients in my internal > network? how do i deal with it? As Luis and Ray have already mentioned, dnscachex should not be running on the RH9 box but only on the LEAF router since it is designed as an external cache service. It can be done, yes, but it can get to be quite tricky to administer for a large network. If you have dnscache already running on the LEAF box just disable the dnscachex service on RH9 - http://cr.yp.to/daemontools/faq/create.html#remove The documentation at Mr. Bernstein's site is quite straight forward and easy to grasp if DNS issues seem to be confusing at times... http://cr.yp.to/djbdns.html -- Patrick Benson Stockholm, Sweden ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
