[rbldnsd] Cookbook info about setting up rbldnsd

[Lyle Giese]

You need to delegate.  Test it via a manual test.  Make a simple zone file
with a short range and test.  Here's the first couple lines of my rbl zone
file:

$SOA 3000 monitor.lcrcomputer.com postmaster.lcrcomputer.com 0 600 300 86400
300
$NS 3000 monitor.lcrcomputer.com
12.100.17.0-255:127.0.0.2:74 dynip 2
12.102.84.0-255:127.0.0.2:35 dynip
12.103.138.40:127.0.0.2:auto  3


Adjust lines 1 and 2 for bl.64r.net and your admin email
address(postmaster.lcrcomputer.com).  Then test using dig.

dig @bl.64r.net 1.17.200.12.bl.64r.net

should return 127.0.0.2 and if you ask for the TXT record '74 dynip2'.  And
at the same time:

dig @bl.64r.net 1.18.100.12.bl.64r.net

should return no answer.

Then if you have the delegation setup, you can query your 64r.net name
servers for the same info.

A blacklisted ip is suspossed to return something in the 127.x.x.x subnet
range.  Anything else is not blacklisted.

BTW: You cann't query my rbl server as it's a hidden/private rbl server and
my main dns servers won't do a recursive query for you.
