For the past few days, every time I try to update an online account
(libofx) I get a popup "Unknown host xx.yy.com:Host not found" but I
can put that exact host name into Firefox and get a good result. I
also get no error using that name in a ping command. Traceroute often
times out before reaching the host, but it does get a good IP address
to use.
This happens for all of my online accounts, including banks, credit
cards, and investment accounts.
I'm at a loss as to where the problem actually occurs, since DNS is
obviously able to look up the address, and the address can be reached.
Any other thoughts about how I can further troubleshoot this?
