I seem to have DNS problems on myxwiki. I can't yet tell if this is a problem with
foafssl.org
or with myxwiki.org, but I think it is with xwiki. Below is an extract of what Dirk
(Chief Architect of the BBC) has to say

Which sounds like the problem is the same here.
That has not been updated for a while it seems,
since 2000 at least
http://sourceforge.net/projects/dnswalk/files/
I suspect that DNS has not changed that much since then.
# dig ns myxwiki.org
; <<>> DiG 9.3.3rc2 <<>> ns myxwiki.org
Ok.

So an answer; but whatever answers is not authoritive.
myxwiki.org. 8 IN NS lanai.xpertnet.biz.
myxwiki.org. 8 IN NS maui.xpertnet.biz.
myxwiki.org. 8 IN NS ns-fr.xpertnet.biz.
These should be auhtoriative.
# dig -t any @maui.xpertnet.biz
So you are asking these.
;; flags: qr rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY:
13, ADDITIONAL: 0
And no answer.
;; AUTHORITY SECTION:

And defers you to the root servers. And it is sure of that.
-> conclusion - this guy is not configured as your dns server; i.e. it does not know
your zone.
# dig -t any @ns-fr.xpertnet.biz
[[ AT THIS POINT IT HANGS FOR A WHILE]]
; <<>> DiG 9.3.3rc2 <<>> -t any @ns-fr.xpertnet.biz
; (1 server found)
;; global options: printcmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
And this guy is not running at all. Or in other words - your entire domain is foobar -
but luckily not with huge TTL's or anything - so it is not hard to recover; either
have the authoritive servers fixed - or move it somewhere else. If you are stuck - let me
know - happy to run some zones over here or pull zones from SVN/hidden-master.
