[LUAU] RR SMTP should resolve with OpenDNS
That doesn't seem right... I am using the OpenDNS servers (just double-checked resolv.conf to make sure), and I get: PING smtp-server.hawaii.rr.com (71.74.56.22) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from hrndva-omtalb.mail.rr.com (71.74.56.22): icmp_seq=1 ttl=242 time=128 ms I'm using RR in the McCully area, but for a non-RR host, that shouldn't matter... Oddly, the traceroute for what should be a Hawaii-based server dies after going through RR's Cali tbone.

Al, The dead cable was inter island and has been fixed for a while. The DNS and other issues were resolved in the early hours this morning by fixing misbehaving or misapplied route filters. -Doug- On 12/3/10 3:31 PM, Al Plant n...@hdk5.net wrote: Dwight Victor (Gmail) wrote: Weird...it's working now.

Re: [LUAU] RR SMTP should resolve with OpenDNS
Yeah, all the outbound hawaii.rr.com mail flows through 4 mainland servers I use Google Public DNS at home: http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/ The Hawaii.rr.com DNS servers are really bad and don't honor TTL's. They just have very long caching and it varies depending on the DNS server you hit. - Julian --- On Thu, 12/2/10, Jeff Mings je...@lava.net wrote: From: Jeff Mings je...@lava.net Subject: [LUAU] RR SMTP should resolve with OpenDNS To: LUAU luau@lists.freesoftwarehawaii.org Date: Thursday, December 2, 2010, 10:21 PM That doesn't seem right...

I almost always prepend the Verizon server when a computer uses Hawaiiantel as its ISP, as their DNS servers are frequently slow, or lack information and stall out (like when trying to reach debian.org). -- Hawaiian Astronomical Society: http://www.hawastsoc.org HAS Deepsky Atlas: http://www.hawastsoc.org/deepsky ___ LUAU@lists.freesoftwarehawaii.org mailing list http://lists.freesoftwarehawaii.org/listinfo.cgi/luau-freesoftwarehawaii.org
