SecureWeb "DNS Query Timed Out"

$

Hello All

I'm new to Astaro and am still trying to wrap my head around where different things are logged, etc.

We are occasionally getting some hickups in our Proxy setup. Websites stop responding through the browser, however, other services continue to work (ping, smtp, etc)

From the webfiltering log:

2012:11:01-16:43:31 astaro httpproxy[4556]: id="0003" severity="info" sys="SecureWeb" sub="http" request="(nil)" function="dns_expire" file="dns.c" line="151" message="dns query timed out, retransmitting (retry 2)"

Disabling the Transparent proxy fixes the issue.

I'm speculating that when using transparent proxy, the Astaro needs to act as a DNS Server, and that is not working. However, when I use the DNSlookup tool in the web interface, things resolve fine. The DNS servers that we are using answer when used from inside the network (through the Astaro).


We're on version 9 with up-to-date firmware and definitions.

Any advice on how to proceed with troubleshooting this issue would be appreciated.

Thanks
