snake that bites its own tail : grimd -update

[jorisd]

Hi,

Thanks for creating grimd ! A little bit of context, here's my setup : a linux raspi with golang 1.6.2 :

BIND9:

• bind9 DNS server listening on 0.0.0.0:53, that is authoritative on a private domain name (lan domain).
• bind9 configured to use grimd (127.0.0.1:54) as the sole forwarders for anything else

GRIMD :

• grimd configured on 0.0.0.0:54 and forwards everything to 8.8.8.8.

resolv.conf it is set to query 127.0.0.1 (bind9)

The problem : When I start grimd -update, it tries to lookup blacklists and so it makes DNS request to my bind9, which in turn tries to forward grimd's DNS requests to grimd.

Since grimd is starting but not fully started, it fails. The snake bites its own tail.

Would it be possible to configure grimd to perform DNS requests on startup to 8.8.8.8 instead of 127.0.0.1 ?

Thanks
