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 On 14 Sep 2010, at 21:08, Dirk-Willem van Gulik wrote:

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

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: . 518400 IN NS A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET.

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.

If I run this from a server in Ireland I get $ dig -t any @ns-fr.xpertnet.biz ; <<>> DiG 9.6.0-APPLE-P2 <<>> -t any @ns-fr.xpertnet.biz ; (1 server found) ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: REFUSED, id: 55036 ;; flags: qr rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; WARNING: recursion requested but not available ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;.
