I had noticed that the (suspected) bad port on the NUC wouldn't
negotiate a 1Gbps speed with the Netgear, but when I forced it to

negotiate was probably indicative of a bigger problem.
I'm pulling my hair out. I have a fedora box (serv1) that is my network

This is plugged into a netgear switch that sends vlan tagged packets to

I did a system upgrade the other day of my main home server/firewall,
and for once the problem wasn't email, it was DNS.
Fedora 33 moved to resolved, which does some interesting things compared
to what I was used to.
Amazingly, it maintained the basic contours of the system I had before:
