They've got a number of problems. click-network.com is one of them.

There is some backstory. The City of Tacoma used to run broadband, and that was Click! Network. The origin story is that this had something to do with SCADA or power distribution, but who knows? They have a /16, and it appears half of it is available to broadband customers. Anyway they privatized it and subsequently sole-sourced that.

Like many businesses today, IT appears to be outsourced and the suppliers for various services do strange things sometimes.

Here's the verbose log that 9.18.21 spits out in conjunction with the SERVFAIL:

24-Apr-2024 08:43:35.587 resolver: notice: DNS format error from 131.191.7.194#53 resolving 85.191.131.in-addr.arpa/NS for <unknown>: Name 191.131.in-addr.arpa (SOA) not subdomain of zone 85.191.131.in-addr.arpa -- invalid response 24-Apr-2024 08:43:35.587 lame-servers: info: FORMERR resolving '85.191.131.in-addr.arpa/NS/IN': 131.191.7.194#53 24-Apr-2024 08:43:35.603 resolver: notice: DNS format error from 131.191.7.12#53 resolving 85.191.131.in-addr.arpa/NS for <unknown>: Name 191.131.in-addr.arpa (SOA) not subdomain of zone 85.191.131.in-addr.arpa -- invalid response 24-Apr-2024 08:43:35.603 lame-servers: info: FORMERR resolving '85.191.131.in-addr.arpa/NS/IN': 131.191.7.12#53

I'm not saying it's the wrong thing to do, although to borrow someone else's line that may be like arguing over the particular weasels chosen rather than the decision to stuff rabid weasels down your pants in the first place.

Hmm, I wonder if qname-minimisation is at issue here.
