I've gotten named working as I hoped it would, but there's a catch (when isn't there a catch???). It seems named only response to the machine that named is running on! Other machines can connect to port 53 (I can even telnet into it and verify the connection doesn't get dropped. I opened the port in my iptables specifically and I can see in netstat -nl that it's listening on both loopback port 53 and eth0 port 53). But whenever I do an nslookup on another machine with the DNS set to the named machine I get no response.


I believe that UDP is used for queries. Are you allowing UDP traffic through on that port? :-)
