Re: DNS lookup issue in 2.1.9

Hi all

Many thanks for all the replies and encouragement on and off list.

I'm going to go back and do a fresh install of 2.1.8/2.1.9. The
ever-helpful Windows Network Diagnostics on a Green client alleged a DNS
failure, but from the system logs dnsmasq is working just fine. That I can
successfully do nslookup and dig from Green suggests the same. However I
guess it wouldn't hurt to add in Google DNS as a secondary in case the ISP
has a problem.

I think I've tripped up by adding rules for http and https, because at the
bottom of the firewall rule screen is a rate-limiting gotcha that appears
to be set by default at 10 ops per hour. When I first tested the firewall
with no rules and no proxy, http worked just fine. I added rules for IMAP
and SMTP because mail wasn't working and added http and https at the same
time. That looks like my mistake.

Best regards
John
