Hi, I'm having trouble looking up a certain domain (not hostsed by my dns server) and I'm not sure if it is a problem with my server or the dns server who is authoritative for this domain.
Let me explain: www.sydneyanglicans.net is the host I am after. Here's is a series of dig commands and their output that illustrate what I can and can't do (see below for the oputput from each one): $ dig www.sydneyanglicans.net $ dig net $ dig sydneyanglicans.net @a.gtld-servers.net $ dig www.sydneyanglicans.net @ns01.glebeaust.com.au $ dig fa0-fw01-sds.glebeaust.com.au $ dig 66-sds.glebeaust.com.au The only one of these quieries to fail is the first one. And it was working fine up until a couple of days ago. The default nameserver is bind9 running on woody. It is a caching server, but doesn't forward first. FWIW, my isp nameserver will not look up this address either. So is this a problem with my server or the remote server? Is there any way to get more info than just SERVFAIL? cheers dc Here is the output from each of these commands: $ dig www.sydneyanglicans.net ; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> www.sydneyanglicans.net ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 34065 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;www.sydneyanglicans.net.
