I'm assuming your DNS response time for internal servers/clients are fine. What O/S is the DNS server running on? Are you running bind internally or some other DNS server? Have you run nslookup or dig in debug mode to see what the the client DNS request is actually doing? Are you allowing external DNS responses through the firewall? Can the internal DNS reach the IP address (e.g. not using a host name) of the external DNS server? -----Original Message----- From: Mailing list for discussion of Firewall-1 [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of straightLiners IT Security Team Sent: Wednesday, September 10, 2003 8:32 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [FW-1] DNS and Check Point Firewall-1 on Nokia device -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello ! I encounter the problem, that DNS resolution doesn't work out properly. When a clients asks the internal DNS to resolve a host's name it takes seriously long resulting in a time-out. The internal DNS forwards the request to a specific external DNS server but obviously gets no answer. Instead its digging recursively a series of unknown DNS server. After about half a minute everything's fine and the host will resolve within a few ms. When digging the external DNS directly everything's within normal response times. I did a test setup at home using the same configuration files and everything's working out just fine. The firewall is a hardware device from Nokia running Check Point Firewall-1. Does anyone know that problem? Which ACLs work out fine and are secure, still? Any other ideas? - -- straightLiners IT Consulting & Services IT Security Department Sebastian Schneider Metzer Str. 12 13595 Berlin Germany Phone: +49-30-3510-6168 Fax: +49-30-3510-6169 Diese E-Mail enthält vertrauliche und/oder rechtlich geschützte Informationen.
