I don't believe so - often times a follow-up host query succeeds without issue. It's also failing for invaluement and spamhaus, both of which we subscribe. 30-Sep-2018 11:42:04.345 query-errors: info: client @0x7f7910197080 127.0.0.1#46806 (177.32.208.162.bad.psky.me): query failed (SERVFAIL) for 177.32.208.162.bad.psky.me/IN/A at ../../../bin/named/query.c:8580 30-Sep-2018 11:32:31.245 query-errors: info: client @0x7f7920170d30 127.0.0.1#30816 (86.131.2.198.zz.countries.nerd.dk): query failed (SERVFAIL) for 86.131.2.198.zz.countries.nerd.dk/IN/A at ../../../bin/named/query.c:8580 # host 177.32.208.162.bad.psky.me Host 177.32.208.162.bad.psky.me not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) # host 61.200.226.173.zz.countries.nerd.dk 61.200.226.173.zz.countries.nerd.dk has address 127.0.3.72 It also tends to happen in bulk - there may be 25 SERVFAILs within the same second, then nothing for another few minutes. I believe an early tcpdump trace showed that we were just not receiving the responses, although I don't know if it was due to the service itself (doubtful, particularly for the reasons mentioned above), or something along the way was dropping the packets. This appears to indicate the response was never received: 27-Sep-2018 16:57:06.509 query-errors: info: client @0x7fc7a42f6900 127.0.0.1#46680 (fidelity.com.wild.pccc.com): query failed (SERVFAIL) for fidelity.com.wild.pccc.com/IN/A at ../../../bin/named/query.c:8580 27-Sep-2018 16:57:06.510 query-errors: debug 2: fetch completed at ../../../lib/dns/resolver.c:3927 for fidelity.com.wild.pccc.com/A in 30.000130: timed out/success [domain:wild.pccc.com,referral:0,restart:7,qrysent:7,timeout:6,lame:0,quota:0,neterr:0,badresp:0,adberr:0,findfail:0,valfail:0] I attempted to search github for query.c line 8580, but there weren't even that many lines in file. Is there any further bind debugging that can be done to determine this? I've tried increasing the tracing level to 99, but it doesn't appear to show any more than trace level 4. _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
