Hi list, Bjoern, John,
I confirm it is now working with the following line in /etc/rc.conf:
jail_ns_ip="192.168.0.252,fec0:5::df:252"
along with redirections in /etc/pf.conf:
rdr pass log on $ext_if inet proto {tcp,udp} to $ext_if port 53 ->
$lo252_if port 53
rdr pass log on $ext_if inet6 proto {tcp,udp} to $ext_if port 53 ->
$lo252_if port 53
Notice the use of both the interface's index and a site-local ip6
address instead of the old fe80 as suggested.
BIND's now happily running in its jail and responding to public
queries.
Perhaps a small addition to the jails entry in the Handbook to
advise people about the use of IP6 addresses on loopback interfaces
would be warranted ?
I realize how lousy it is to NAT IP6 but my host assigns only 1
IP6 address per server.
Thanks for the help !
Regards
