      More Insight on DNS Problems

      by Andrew McCaskey
      More investigation with GoDaddy on the source of the intermittent DNS failures to find the podcast or the site from certain Cox, AT&T and SBC Global sites.

      Signs now are pointing to Level3 and ABOVE.NET as possible culprits and a mistaken blacklist entry that is blocking the IP address . Packets that take other routes go through fine -and this is explaining some of the intermittent nature of the problems.

      The cure may be a reprovision and change of the IP, allowing a DNS repopulation to flush things out and just reset all.

      It may happen this weekend.
