Can anyone tell me why the resolver on my 4-STABLE box (updated 3 months ago), would suddenly stop being able to resolve krab.centaf.af.mil? A restart of named fixed the issue, but I'm curious as to why it would stop resolving in the first place. I've googled, but haven't found anything relevant to the issue.
This has caused much grief for one of my customers who's son is in Iraq, and I'd like to prevent it from happening again in the future.
Troy,
It looks like to me one of the 2 Name servers for krab.centaf.af.mil is misconfigured,
no A records. I would drop the appropriate admins a friendly note. If they don't fix it,
you could put a local host entry. The bad entry was poisoning your cache and at TTL expiration
Bind tries again with a 50% per cent chance (or maybe more since the bad DNS server is listed
first), of getting a bad entry again. They are probably other ways of fixing the problem also.
