I am trying to help set up rbldnsd in a Wintel
environment (insert MS flame here) for a group that
does not have $$ for Postini.

Wintel server is running DNS and Active Directory for
their environment.

rbldnsd is up and running. Running dig at local host
returns:
[root at maps root]# dig @localhost
6.60.255.68.abuse.nonprofit.local
 
; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> @localhost
6.60.255.68.abuse.nonprofit.local
;; global options:  printcmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id:
40548
;; flags: qr aa rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0,

;; QUESTION SECTION:

6.60.255.68.abuse.nonprofit.local. 3600 IN A  
127.0.0.2

;; SERVER: 127.0.0.1#53(localhost)
;; WHEN: Wed Oct  6 08:27:58 2004

HOWEVER running dig using the Wintel DNS server gives:
[root at maps root]# dig 10.10.10.1
6.60.255.68.abuse.nonprofit.local +nord
 
; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> 10.10.10.1

If I am reading the AUTHORITY SECTION correctly, the
Wintel machine seems to delegate zone "abuse" to the
machine "maps", just not sure why listed addresses are
not being blocked.

TIA for any help.
