Hi I'm using Debian Woody, and i configured a master
DNS server on my network. It suposed to transfer
the master zone to my ISP but it doesn't.
i've tried to investigate my problem from a station
situated on the
internet to see what happends. i mention that tried to
configure a 
slave
DNS server on my local network and it works (the zone
transfer ocured).

the -x.y.z.t is my ip located on the internet
    -172.16.35.137 is my local computer


in /var/log/syslog i see only the logs from my
firewall that i named (DNS-in for the INPUT chain and
DNS-out for the output chain) but as i mentioned i can
see in netstat only the TCP SYN flag when i try telnet
from the outside (from x.y.x.t) no established
conection but i have an outgoing packet logged with
the firewall (with tcpdump i olso see an outgoing
packet from the dns server

this is tcpdump from DNS when i tried to connect to
prt 53 from x.y.z.t:

03:36:10.077870 x.y.z.t.sa-msg-port > ns..domain: 
S1532033272:1532033272(0) win 5840 <mss
1460,sackOK,timestamp 25289352 0,nop,wscale 0>

03:36:10.078383 ns..domain > x.y.z.t.sa-msg-port:

1460,sackOK,timestamp 25292352 0,nop,wscale 0>

1460,sackOK,timestamp 1388231 25289352,nop,wscale
0>(DF)


this is the firewall log for the same conection

Mar 21 03:41:23 ns kernel:
DNS-IN:--log-ip-optionsIN=eth2 OUT= 
MAC=z.x.c.v.b.n

URGP=0 OPT (020405B40402080A0015A80B0186AC0701030300)



these are my options in maned.conf

options {
        directory "/var/cache/bind";
        auth-nxdomain no;    # conform to RFC1035
        allow-query { 172.16.32.0/19; ISP 1-st DNS IP;
ISP 2-nd dns IP; x.y.z.t; 127.0.0.1;};
        allow-transfer { ISP 1-st DNS IP; ISP 2-nd dns
IP ; 172.16.35.137; x.y.z.t;  };
        transfer-source ISP 1-st DNS IP;
        notify-source ISP 1-st DNS IP;
        transfer-format many-answers;
        listen-on port 53 {external IP; 172.16.33.1;
127.0.0.1; };
};

where
-172.16.35.137 is my local computer on witch i tried
to configure a slave zone to see if the zone transfer
happends (it works)

-x.y.z.t is my ip located on the internet


this is the result of nmap started from my local
workstation(172.16.35.137), when the DNS...server had
no firewall(/etc/init.d/iptables clear)

Starting nmap V. 2.54BETA31 ( www.insecure.org/nmap/ )
 
it can't scan my ports because I  have a rule against
it.


next i tried to configure a dns slave on x.y.z.t

and on the slave dns logs i see this message:

Mar 21 03:57:26.590 zone my.zone/IN: refresh: failure
trying master <my master dns IP>#53: timed out

there is no surprise for me since the 53's port is not
accessibe


do i have to confirure something special in my dns
options to have 
acces
at mai 53 port?


please help
and 10x for your time

george
