Need help: openvpn is killing Named (linux)
Posted: Thu Mar 17, 2011 12:51 am
Hi,
I followed this tutorial: http://library.linode.com/networking/openvpn/centos-5
And it worked. With my windows7 client I managed to successfully connect, and only show the servers pages in IE. And it also showed my VPN ip was 10.8.0.6
Then I tried the part to forward all my internet traffic.
The connection went well, but I couldn't open a page.
So I decided to take a break and then...
Then I noticed the email on my linux server (CentOS 5.5) wasn't being sent out cause: "host lookup did not complete"
so I checked the server log file, and it keeps showing every second, that it can't connect, and somehow that VPN ip is in there:
restarted named...
And it still goes on and on...
What's happening ?
Why is this 10.8.0.6 address still haunting my server ?
And how can I fix this to allow traffic from my server again ?

I stopped the openvpn, and I even removed it with yum again.Mar 17 01:31:51 server named[18893]: socket.c:1552: unexpected error:
