[SOLVED] named fail - edns timeouts

I'M GOING TO TAKE TO ONE OF MY COMPUTERS WITH AN AXE SOON
</erant>

OK, here's the deal... I've not changed anything on my network. Firewall hasn't been changed for months. Same internet connection. Same IP addressing. But named has stopped working after I REMOVED a zone. When i try and query using my internal server now, I just get this:

28-Nov-2008 20:09:41.702 client 192.168.31.17#42155: query: google.com.au IN A +
28-Nov-2008 20:09:44.722 too many timeouts resolving 'google.com.au/A' (in '.'?): disabling EDNS
28-Nov-2008 20:09:44.723 too many timeouts resolving './NS' (in '.'?): disabling EDNS
28-Nov-2008 20:09:45.226 too many timeouts resolving 'google.com.au/A' (in '.'?): disabling EDNS
28-Nov-2008 20:09:45.226 too many timeouts resolving './NS' (in '.'?): disabling EDNS
28-Nov-2008 20:09:45.729 too many timeouts resolving 'google.com.au/A' (in '.'?): disabling EDNS
28-Nov-2008 20:09:45.729 too many timeouts resolving './NS' (in '.'?): disabling EDNS
28-Nov-2008 20:09:46.232 too many timeouts resolving 'google.com.au/A' (in '.'?): disabling EDNS
28-Nov-2008 20:09:46.233 too many timeouts resolving './NS' (in '.'?): disabling EDNS
28-Nov-2008 20:09:46.705 client 192.168.31.17#42155: query: google.com.au IN A +
28-Nov-2008 20:09:46.736 too many timeouts resolving 'google.com.au/A' (in '.'?): disabling EDNS
28-Nov-2008 20:09:46.736 too many timeouts resolving './NS' (in '.'?): disabling EDNS

Internal zones that are mastered on this server work fine.

Can someone help me save my computers from the axe?

Re: [SOLVED] named fail - edns timeouts

Something tells me one of the DNS servers your named instance is forwarding to is having issues.

Just a thought: When you removed the zone files, did you also remove the zone definition from named.conf? Also, after removing it, did you try an "rndc reload"?

Also, what's your output of "dig @localhost google.com.au"?

Re: [SOLVED] named fail - edns timeouts

Okay... I stand corrected... Something on my firewall changed. I don't know what, because I haven't touched it apart from looking at statistics.

I pulled out my firewall and it all started working. I've replaced with with pfSense (it was "Endian" firewall).

All good now, albeit a long and annoying solution
