fetchmail problem

Post by billdbr »

I use Bubba2 as mini server behind a netgear router/firewall (scenario 6)
Using fetchmail I get the following message in the mail log:

Jan 18 16:35:22 zefod fetchmail[5252]: Query status=11 (DNS)
Jan 18 16:35:22 zefod fetchmail[5252]: couldn't find canonical DNS name of debruijns.nl (debruijns.nl): Temporary failure in name resolution
Jan 18 16:35:22 zefod fetchmail[5252]: Query status=11 (DNS)
Jan 18 16:35:22 zefod fetchmail[5252]: couldn't find canonical DNS name of mail.home.nl (mail.home.nl): Temporary failure in name resolution
Jan 18 16:35:22 zefod fetchmail[5252]: Query status=11 (DNS)
Jan 18 16:35:22 zefod fetchmail[5252]: sleeping at Sun 18 Jan 2009 04:35:22 PM UTC for 300 seconds

From my laptop connected to the netgear router I can retreive mail and I can ping both mailservers.

When I ping from the bubba I get unknown host.

In the bubba I have all services "allowed" and in the firewall no ports forwarded.

I'm stuck here.

Any help?
