Can't get to BIND container from outside of host computer

General

I’ve got a host running a few containers: gitea and emby, for example. I can access those from any computer on my network. So I created a new container for DNS using BIND9.

My docker-compose.yml looks like this:

version: “2”

services:
dns:
image: djotaku/bind:latest
volumes:

  • /media/docker/dns/data/named:/etc/named
  • /media/docker/dns/data/conf/named.conf:/etc/named.conf
    ports:
  • “53:53”

there are dashes up there where they should be, but the formatting of this forum removes it and changes the formatting of the font.

If I do:

nslookup nameOfserver 198.168.1.14 (which is the IP of the host computer) I get a timeout and it won’t connect.

if I do:

nslookup nameOfserver 172.22.0.2 (the IP of teh container) it works.

Doesn’t matter if I have the firewall off or on.

docker port dns_dns_1
53/tcp → 0.0.0.0:53

Am I doing something crazy here?

Thanks!

edit: turns out - yes, yes I was. I didn’t specify udp in the docker-compose so it wasn’t working.
