The logged address is an IPv4 address, so we can rule out IPv6 as the source of the problem. I suppose you have configured your local BIND 9 instance to forward queries to 194.159.73.6. Is this correct? Can you show us the result of the following command? dig @194.159.73.6 lwn.net +bufsize=4096 The issue might be EDNS0-related (+bufsize turns on EDNS0). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
