    This entries I find more and more in my logfiles but I don't understand them. Does somebody know what it mean?

    Do you run the DNS servers for otterpage.com yourself?
    It seems rhere are no authoritative name servers for that domain:

    Code:
    mh1:~# dig ns otterpage.com
    
    ; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> ns otterpage.com
    ;; global options:  printcmd
    ;; Got answer:
    ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 21893
    ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0
    
    ;; QUESTION SECTION:
    ;otterpage.com.                 IN      NS
    
    ;; Query time: 9 msec

    No, I found out the same, no DNS entries for otterpage.com and I'm not having and I even not had otterpage.com as domain or a DNS server with that doman but there are log entries and I dont understand how they come in my logs an why bind tries to answer by this DNS question?

    That picture is nmap giving from an outsite view of my server:
    and what is the strange "lame server", I'm not having somthing like that installed. How it is possible that "lame server ..." is producing enties in the log files ?

    So you have nothing to do with the domain otterpage.com?

    What's in /etc/resolv.conf, and what's your server's IP address?

    Please try this instead in /etc/resolv.conf:

    Code:
    nameserver 145.253.2.75
    nameserver 193.174.32.18
    These are two name servers that work correctly.
