Hello, This is my first post, im having problem installing djbdns in RE4 (update 2) under vmware. I have done this guide. I already have this guide in another system (Debian testing and another RE4) and it run perfect. But under vmware, i have resolv dns querys in localhost, but i another machine cant resolv using this dnscache, example: dnscache server: IP 172.16.6.20 dnscache client: IP 172.16.6.9 Code: dnscache#pwd /var/dns/dnscache/root/ip dnscache#ls -1 127.0.0.1 172.16.6 dnscache# dig @localhost google.es ; DiG 9.2.4 @localhost google.es ;; global options: printcmd ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached This is strange, localhost no resolv, but no problem, this run: Code: dnscache# dig @172.16.6.20 google.com ; <<>> DiG 9.2.4 <<>> @172.16.6.20 google.com ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 14623 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 3, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;google.com.

But what see the dnscache server? Log: Code: dnscache#tail -f /var/dns/dnscache/log/main/current -------------------nothing appear while client try resolv---------------- tcpdump: Code: dnscache#tcpdump -ni eth0 udp port 53 -X 03:19:16.649158 IP 172.16.6.9.32788 > 172.16.6.20.domain: 8306+ A? google.com.

The consults is comming but no answer from the server. This same configuration in a real server (no vmware) with RE4 run without problems. Anyone have any idea ? Why this dnscache in vmware machine, no respond to other machines ? As you can see in /var/dns/dnscache/root/ip there is a file call 172.16.6 i also probe 172.16.6.9 with the same results, dont work. Thanks and Regards, Layn.
