Eh, no worries-- I've just configured BIND-- or so I thought.

Relevant rc.conf information:

rbldnsd_enable="YES"
rbldnsd_flags=${rbldnsd_flags:-"-u service:service -p 
/var/run/rbldnsd.pid -f -r /usr/local/dnsbl/ -w rbldnsd -b 
208.116.11.50/10053 -t 30 \
ips.dnsbl:ip4set:ips \
domains.dnsbl:dnset:domains"}

Relevant named.conf information:

        zone "dnsbl" {
                type forward;
                forward only;
                forwarders {
                208.116.11.50 port 10053;
                };
                };



Yet when I test it from the console, I get servfail; any suggestions?

# dig 143.142.211.206.dnsbl
