Peter:

Thanks!  I ran that and got a full response back.  Then I remembered
that you cannot check on recursiveness from a trusted interface...

I went to my ISP (alt email provider) and ran

well% dig -t any peter-dambier.de @64.139.55.108

; <<>> DiG 2.0 <<>> -t peter-dambier.de @64.139.55.108 
; (1 server found)
;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch
;; res_send to server 64.139.55.108: Connection timed out

"Connection timed out" is expected.  Means that the ACLs are working.

Just to make sure, lets test for something that CAN be resolved:

well% dig metis.hicks-net.net @64.139.55.108

; <<>> DiG 2.0 <<>> metis.hicks-net.net @64.139.55.108 
; (1 server found)
;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch
;; got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 10
;; flags: qr aa rd; Ques: 1, Ans: 1, Auth: 3, Addit: 1
;; QUESTIONS:
;;  metis.hicks-net.net, type = A, class = IN

;; ANSWERS:
metis.hicks-net.net.3600A   64.139.55.108

;; AUTHORITY RECORDS:
hicks-net.net.  3600NS  ns1.xname.org.
hicks-net.net.  3600NS  ns0.xname.org.
hicks-net.net.  3600NS  ns.hicks-net.net.

;; ADDITIONAL RECORDS:
ns.hicks-net.net.   3600A   64.139.55.108

;; FROM: well to SERVER: 64.139.55.108
;; WHEN: Mon Dec 15 02:57:50 2008
;; MSG SIZE  sent: 37  rcvd: 131

well% 

That worked also.  (I got the expected results...  Yay!)

Again, thanks!

Regards,
Gregory Hicks

Re: Where is the open recursion test?

2008-12-15 Thread Peter Dambier
just try

dig -t any peter-dambier.de @

If it tells you something about denic it is not recursive.
If you get the complete answer it is very likely recursive.

Something internal could have triggered the query but only
if your server is in /etc/resolv.conf.

Kind regards
Peter

Thanks!  But I tried that about 6 hours earlier today.  It said address
64.139.55.108 had status "untested".  It also said that if I wanted my
address retested, make a TCP connection to
dns-surveyor.measurement-factory.com port 999 (e.g., with telnet) from
the address to be tested.  I did THAT also. So far, nothing.

Any other ideas?
