My accessprovider (leased line) runs our DNS requirements on his own servers (we do not run 'named' or equivalents on our FreeBSD machine). Recently, nslookup's have started to fail all the time, with "query refused" messages. This happens only when ran from the shell - using telnet etc to domains work. I asked them about this, and they said that they've discintinued allowing "zone transfers" - and that my server probably asks for a zone transfer upon doing a 'nslookup'. Another possibility was that we ran something called "caching-only DNS'. How do I disable either? Or is there another solution? Not being able to do lookups is a major pain. Thank you very much Simon Lindgren lindgren@istudio.no
