Hi David! Nice to see you on Saturday!
Bind9 can be fussy (rndc controls everything). You ARE changing the right item to turn recursion on. http://www.eukhost.com/forums/f15/turning-off-dns-recursion-bind-2283/ But you can also do this in a Bind9 ACL using the "Views" feature: http://www.bind9.net/manual/bind/9.3.1/Bv9ARM.ch07.html http://oreilly.com/pub/a/oreilly/networking/news/views_0501.html Are you restarting named after a change? "/etc/init.d/named restart" If you have rndc are you reloading? "rdnc reload" Do you have logging turned on, so you can see what is happening? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIND9ServerHowto Are you editing the right file? There's a chroot? "locate named.conf" On Sun, Aug 14, 2011 at 10:27 AM, David Demland <deml...@cox.net> wrote: > I am trying to set up a DNS poisoning test as an example for my class.
