I have /etc/resolv.conf containing a nameserver entry. I also have some name servers listed in the forwarders section of etc/bind/named.conf. Is there a way to configure both bind and the normal name resolver (how does it work???) to always use the same port?
From /etc/bind/named.conf (Debian box):
// If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want // to talk to, you might need to uncomment the query-source // directive below. Previous versions of BIND always asked // questions using port 53, but BIND 8.1 and later use an unprivileged // port by default.
query-source address * port 53;
Hah: thanks! That was right under my nose. I guess I've been ignoring that section for a while now as I haven't tried this before. I should probably point resolv.conf at the local server too.
Cheers, Malc
