Newbie is back!

Have rbldnsd running happily in my NATted LAN. (thanks Michael for your invaluable help)

rbldnsd runs on 127.0.02/53

Would like to give a few ppl acess from the outside, Firewall & Bind's query access is OK, the client can hit my Bind but a request to rbl.mydomain.com points to 127.0.0.2, and the remote client can't resolve it.

Which is the best Bind/Rbldnsd approach to allow access form the outside?

I thought of using a second NIC or IP on eth0, and force Rbldnsd to use this but there may be a better way without wasting an external IP for this.

Appreciate your experience & hints

Alex
