Hi guys, I am sitting here with my new gentoo server. At the moment I struggle with bind. The problem is known, but I cannot solve it without help.
I've googled first of cause, and found a lot of reports, blogs and so so on, telling me, that the source of my problem is the ipv6 support in bind. My new server does not support ipv6. I've set USE="-ipv6", which seems to be ignored. I've got this in my /var/log/messages after named is started: <snip> Mar 5 08:30:50 Tartessos named[18050]: loading configuration from '/etc/bind/named.conf' Mar 5 08:30:50 Tartessos named[18050]: using default UDP/IPv4 port range: [1024, 65535] Mar 5 08:30:50 Tartessos named[18050]: using default UDP/IPv6 port range: [1024, 65535] Mar 5 08:30:50 Tartessos named[18050]: listening on IPv4 interface lo, 127.0.0.1#53 Mar 5 08:30:50 Tartessos named[18050]: listening on IPv4 interface eth0, 192.168.0.5#53 <snap> As you can see, named tries to listen on ipv6 ports. I've read, that passing "-4" to bind forces ipv4 mode only, but cat /etc/conf.d/named # Set various named options here. # OPTIONS="-4" this does not help. To give you an example what slow means: <snip> Tartessos ~ # dig www.gentoo.org ; <<>> DiG 9.4.3-P4 <<>> www.gentoo.org ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 55705 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 2, ADDITIONAL: 2 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;www.gentoo.org.
