Yes, I did so. options { listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; }; // listen-on-v6 port 53 { ::1; }; forwarders { 192.168.0.1; }; # cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 > Subsequent posts show that things are still trying to use IPv6, and > you've said your network can't support it. So you do want to disable > IPv6 activity. That should get some of the failures out of the way. It's disabled in the dhcp server in the router, and I have it set to ignore in the connection. Where else would I turn it off? Actually, I think these are the authorative servers being queried from the named server, part of the includes in named.conf. > It looks that way.

The firewall explicitly allows dns in both router and firewalld. I'm done with this. Pounding my head against the wall is a waste of time. I'll use dnsmasq or knot-resolver to get caching from the router being used as dns. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
