Link Mauve: is your DNS okay? my server says `Server-to-server connection failed: ServFail in AAAA lookup`

for muc.linkmauve.fr to be precise

mjk, I just updated the SOA, but it responds correctly here.

Ah hmm, not on other resolvers…

My own resolver, as well as unbound, are happy, but neither Google nor Clownflare.

Is the old server not responding for that domain anymore? You'll want to keep that working a few days

yeah, caches gonna cache

moparisthebest, which old server?

I assumed you switched servers, otherwise what's causing the ServFail

Link Mauve, maybe https://dnsviz.net/ has ideas

It seems old and not updated since 2021. oO

dnsviz?

Its view of my zone.

then click the update button at the top

(search for "Update now" on the page, it's a link actually)

Ah thanks, my IPv6 GLUE hadn’t been updated!

dnsviz is hands down the best ad-hoc tool to get a comprehensive view of potential DNS issues

fwiw, I've also seen the `ServFail in A lookup`

There, everything fixed, thanks!

^_^

I migrated my DNS server back to my main server.

Now that I found the problem that caused me to do an emergency backup restore on a server of a different architecture.

(It was my parents, shutting down the UPS because it made noise, which had the hdd of the server plugged in.)

(So the server obviously couldn’t find its hdd any more.)

servers tend to indeed not like that

so making noise is a vulnerability 🤔

Poor UPS just wanted to tell us the battery was dead.

"don't sh{u,oo}t down the messenger"

mathieui, DNS is now fixed btw, I’ll receive emails reliably now perhaps!
