Thanks Torsten, the low TTL's have to do with us using the LB's in a failover environment between two locations. Today I was given access to a Linux box on the Verizon network that is using their DNS server 71.252.0.12, which is affected by this problem. Digs and pings to www-mbclive.mbc.irides.com from this device fail. What can I do to better test and pinpoint the cause of the failure? _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
