[Outages-discussion] AT&T DNS problems?

[Frank Bulk]

(Moving off the outages list to discuss):

 

Something is not healthy for the ben.edu when I look at our DNS server
(96.31.0.5):

 

nagios:/# dig NS ben.edu +short 

ns2432.ztomy.com.

ns1432.ztomy.com.

nagios:/#

 

But querying them at Google show good results:

 

nagios:/# dig NS ben.edu +short @8.8.8.8

ns2.bobbroadband.com.

ns1.bobbroadband.com.

nagios:/#

 

Same when I quote ns1.bobbroadband.com:

nagios:/# dig A ns1.bobbroadband.com +short

208.91.197.132

nagios:/# dig A ns2.bobbroadband.com +short

208.91.197.132

 

Good when I look at Google:

nagios:/# dig A ns1.bobbroadband.com +short @8.8.8.8

63.250.224.50

nagios:/# dig A ns2.bobbroadband.com +short @8.8.8.8

63.250.224.66

nagios:/#

 

I'm guessing there was some hijacking or poisoning happened somewhere.

We are the primary DNS servers for the ben.edu domain. We seem to be having
an issue with an AT&T server that is responding  with incorrect A records
for www.ben.edu <http://www.ben.edu>  and ben.edu.

 

What it SHOULD be the response:

nslookup www.ben.edu <http://www.ben.edu> 

Server:         63.250.224.66

Address:        63.250.224.66#53

 

www.ben.edu <http://www.ben.edu>      canonical name = ben.edu.

Name:   ben.edu

Address: 38.100.120.100

 

What 12.127.17.83 is responding with:

> www.ben.edu <http://www.ben.edu> 

Server:  tbru.br.rs.els-gms.att.net

Address:  12.127.17.83

 

Non-authoritative answer:

Name:    www.ben.edu <http://www.ben.edu> 

Address:  208.91.197.132

 

This appears to be affecting only iPhones and iPads on the AT&T network. Is
anybody else having problems with this? Are there any AT&T people on this
list that can help?
