Good afternoon Outages,

Anyone else seeing massive DNS issues this morning, particularly with
Network Solutions' "hosted zone" servers?

langsam:~# whois carywiedemann.com | grep "Domain servers" -A 3
   Domain servers in listed order:

   NS43.WORLDNIC.COM            205.178.190.22
   NS44.WORLDNIC.COM            206.188.198.22

langsam:~# host carywiedemann.com 206.188.198.22
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

Seems to be affecting far more than just my personal domain:

langsam:~# whois blueridgenetworks.com | grep -A 3 "Domain servers"
   Domain servers in listed order:

   NS23.WORLDNIC.COM            205.178.190.12
   NS24.WORLDNIC.COM            206.188.198.12

langsam:~# host blueridgenetworks.com 206.188.198.12
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

langsam:~# whois blueridge.com | grep -A 3 "Domain servers"
   Domain servers in listed order:

   NS33.WORLDNIC.COM            205.178.190.17
   NS34.WORLDNIC.COM            206.188.198.17

langsam:~# host blueridge.com 206.188.198.17
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

I don't believe any of these NSXX.WORLDNIC.COM servers are anycasted...  is
anyone else having trouble?

Not a peep out of their Twitter feed.

Thanks everyone.
