------------------------------------
Assignee: Viraj Jasani
> Invalid hostname tests can fail if the ISP hijacks NXDOMAIN
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-23161
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-23161
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Andrew Kyle Purtell
> Assignee: Viraj Jasani
> Priority: Trivial
> Labels: beginner, beginners
>
> Some residential internet service providers use the opportunity of DNS record
> not found cases and instead of returning NXDOMAIN responses per the standard
> they return A records that redirect the user to their own portal or search
> page. This breaks tests like
> TestConnectionImplementation.testGetClientBadHostname and
> TestRegionServerHostname.testInvalidRegionServerHostnameAbortsServer. We
> should detect this behavior and skip these cases.
