I've installed the TinyDNS package. It's listening on 127.0.0.1. Then I've

This doesn't work when making queries from the lan. The request gets to the
forwarder but then it's lost and there is no traffic on lo0.Instead, if I do
a DNS query from the pfSense box itself to 127.0.0.1 then there is traffic
on lo0 and the DNS works Ok.

I think that there is any default pfSense rule prohibiting the traffic.


Is this the supposed way to work of TinyDNS and the forwarder or I'm missing
something?


Thanks!

TinyDNS is not compatible with DNS Forwarder.   TinyDNS Is an
authoritative DNS server whereas DNS Forwarder is a caching lookup
server.

That's all I needed to know. I think I'll end up setting up an external DNS and keep using th DNS Forwarder, and then forward all of my domain to that external DNS.

It's a pity that both systems can't work together.

Thanks for your help Scott.
