But I want to resolve this problem: take news.qq.com for example, I DID saw that it's unresolvable to one group (they returned NXDomain), at meantime it's no problem to another group, and "dig news.qq.com +trace" returned correct answer on both group. It seems like it's just a temporary failure, but I want to correct. Any other choices?
