you allow traffic. But do you rdr it? Otherwise how will it get to 127.0.0.1 port 53 I think this is why it works locally and on the pfsense box and not for the LAN. > > > > > And no, I want tinyDNS to listen only in 127.0.0.1 and then the DNS > Forwarder to forward request for just one subdomain.

But I think tinydns needs to be told respond to dns queries from your LAN, otherwise it will ignore them. > > > When I setup an "external authoritative dns" for a subdomain on a lan ip, > it works.
