DNS woes
#137

Hi --

I recently upgraded my DNS from named 8.1.1 to 8.1.2-T3B.  Everything
works, except nslookup.  nslookup hangs and named puts the following record
in syslog:

Apr 14 16:21:47 moat.pweh.com named[2241]: refused query on non-query socket from [my.ip.address].59246

My named.conf file (not changed from 8.1.1) is below.

I also know that if I comment out the 'query-source' option, nslookup
resolves locally, but the routers block outbound requests.

I'm sure I need to modify an option, but can't figure out what.


Thanks for any help.
