In my server hosted in the US, I'm having problems with looking up some domains. What I noticed is that those domains with problems are the one which I entered dns entries in dot ph's system as opposed to putting them in some other dns server.
The wierd thing is that when I tried to change /etc/resolv.conf and use my dns server, it does not resolve. Using DIG and forcing @nameserver on the command line gives me timeouts or blank A entries. >From my local setup: $ dig anvilexecutiveclub.ph ; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> anvilexecutiveclub.ph ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 26567 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 4, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;anvilexecutiveclub.ph.

I guess my DNS lookup has a problem. Question is where is this thing getting stuck? Traceroutes from the server to nsfwd and ns2.domains.ph are ok. Appreciate any suggestions. God bless you.
