[Pdns-users] Problem with .au/.uk sites not resolving

Hi Tony,

So from what I understand, your issue is with resolving domains that are not yours through the PowerDNS Recursor?

And that your authoritative servers are not involved in this issue?

Which version of the PowerDNS Recursor do you run? Please note that version 3.3 is rather more strict in its interpretation of DNS rules than 3.5.1, and that this might be the issue.

Does the log file have anything relevant to say? Are the domains you mention the specific ones with issues, or is it generic .au, .uk?

Problem that has been brought to my attention by customers is that certain domains are unreachable.  I can reach those sites reported via the IP Address.  Google resolves the site(s) fine.  We've verified reachability from other ISP's, i.e. they resolve the domains.  I don't have any firewall rules that would prohibit reaching an key IP.  Here's what I see.
