Working on setting up rbldnsd using bind 9.5 in scientific linux 6.2. I have the debug level set to 4, and when I run:

dig A 168.75.243.205.iadb.isipp.com @localhost

I don't get a response, and the debug output produces:

In particular, I am not sure what do make of the error line after the query.

I think the "recursion not available" is the main problem. And your dig goes to localhost but the query is logged as coming from 64.142.18.25, not 127.0.0.1. I think you should explain how you're getting from dig to named, and where rbldnsd fits in (although maybe that part would be obvious to someone more familiar with rbldnsd than me) – Alan Curry Jul 30 '12 at 21:11
