OpenDNS Dropped Packets

futuredriven
New to Astaro and very impressed.  Only issue I'm having so far that I can't seem to find any answers for has to do with OpenDNS.  This is currently a test environment on a TimeWarner Cable connect so I can familiarize myself with the product. 

In my firewall log I noticed that Astaro is constantly dropping packets for hit-nxdomain.opendns.com.

Service Ports specifically being dropped:
icmp/t8c0
tcp/135
tcp/445
tcp/139
udp/161
tcp/85

I've have OpenDNS implemented at all my customer's sites, would like to resolve this issue before I recommend moving to production Astaro servers.

Thanks for any help on this.

    Hi, futuredriven, and welcome to the User BB!

    Please show a few lines from the full log (not the Live Log) where this traffic is blocked.

    Cheers - Bob

    My guess is something on your network is trying to connect to servers which OpenDNS is not resolving, or is blocking.

    This could mean that you have a trojan that is trying to communicate with it's C&C servers, and OpenDNS is blocking dns lookups for those servers.

    Or, it could just mean that you have a misconfiguration in your LAN causing PCs to try to connect to non-existent servers.
