Hello,
I am running into some odd DNS issues.
We can resolve most names, but for example not amazon.com, npr.org, securityfocus.com to name a few.
We are running Microsoft DNS on a Windows 2003 machine.
Everything was working fine until today.
There are forwarders setup to two other nameservers in the other local domain (we have two)
DNS Server is set to listen on All IP addresses
Recursion is not disabled
Root hints name servers are populated and I've resolved all of them from the DNS server
A simple query against the DNS server fails, but a recursive lookup passes using the Monitoring tab under DNS server properties.
I dont understand why the simple query fails - I can run nslookup from the DNS servers and resolve the computer name, other computer names in the AD, yahoo.com, google.com, aol.com, etc.
So - main issue is we cannot get to
Ive cleared the cache, restarted the DNS server, checked Event Viewer for anything related and nothing shows of importance.
The DNS server itself the NICs are configured to use itself for DNS with no secondary on the NIC.
Can anyone give me a few things I could try to get this resolved? Ive tested amazon.com from centralops.net as well as through free Internet proxies and I know the website is not DOWN.
Could it be an ISP issue with Time Warner Telecom?
Thanks
