Hi,

I'm creating a test system and will analyse the packages.
I have installed a bind9.6 that get's the information from
the root zones. I don't use at this time forwarders.

Can I send all packages from bind over a socks proxy?
Only the request that runs out of the box (to the root servers
and other servers) must run over the proxy?

Thanks

Phil

I cannot find any indication that BIND 9.6 is able to use a SOCKS proxy
in its reference manual.

Okay, that's my opinion, too. My next idea: I modify the init.d-script and run
tsocks with bind, because tsocks can run every programm over the socks
proxy. Is this a solution?

Thx

Does tsocks support UDP ? If no, is there some similar software that does ?
The DNS protocol can use TCP if needed but uses UDP most of the time.
Besides, some (broken ?) authoritative nameservers won't accept TCP
connections.

No, tsocks always supoorts tcp connection and I don't know any tool that can
handle udp connections.

I wouldn't like to configure my bind with tcp connection. I would
create dns calls
over the TOR network like http://sandos.ath.cx/~badger/tordns.html but
I had set
tordns and ste the forwarder in bind. If the forwarders set bind don't
connect to
my root zone servers

Do you have any idea?

Thanks

Phil
