I'd normally attribute this problem to DNS, but I can't track down what DNS problem is occuring. Note the lag between the first event and the next. Any suggestions?
might be identd (port 113)
After some testing, I'm inclined to think it's not ident. The network in question is behind a firewall which is doing NAT. Two boxes do not exibit the problem. Two do. All are FreeBSD 4.6-stable created from same source snapshot.
I've tested this from several boxes behind my firewall each time emailing to a box outside the firewall. The test was:
echo 'hi there' | mail da...@m20.example.org
The two boxes which exibit the probem are the DNS server and the firewall. Mail sent from those boxes exhibit identical delays, namely a 75 second lag between the first and second event (see below for an example; note that I've changed the real domain to example.org). I'm not sure whether this indicates a problem on the sending or receiving end. I suspect sending. But what the problem is I'm not sure yet.
I've been running "tcpdump -i lo0 port 53" to see if I could find anything suspect in there, but I didn't. BTW, what would I be looking for if the above delay is caused by DNS?
Thanks.
