I am unable to reach msn.com, due to DNS lookup failures. http://microsoft.com is responding very slowly within a web browser (it's A record is cached in my nameserver). None of the ns[1-5].msft.net nameservers are responding to queries. The glue records for msft.net currently look to me like: ns1.msft.net. 67622 IN A 65.55.37.62 ns5.msft.net. 67622 IN A 65.55.226.140 ns2.msft.net. 67622 IN A 64.4.59.173 ns4.msft.net. 67622 IN A 207.46.75.254 ns3.msft.net. 67622 IN A 213.199.180.53 Here is a traceroute to ns1.msft.net: $ traceroute 65.55.37.62 traceroute to 65.55.37.62 (65.55.37.62), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets 4 olp-67-217-150-202.olp.net (67.217.150.202) 9.998 ms 9.998 ms 10.057 ms 5 12.249.72.53 (12.249.72.53) 14.930 ms 14.931 ms 14.925 ms 6 cr81.tlsok.ip.att.net (12.123.16.238) 7.774 ms 9.796 ms 9.385 ms 7 cr1.dlstx.ip.att.net (12.122.1.201) 7.951 ms 7.954 ms 7.952 ms 8 gar23.dlstx.ip.att.net (12.122.85.69) 6.479 ms 6.486 ms 6.591 ms 9 * * * 10 207.46.47.36 (207.46.47.36) 17.687 ms * 17.918 ms 11 207.46.40.202 (207.46.40.202) 58.563 ms 58.570 ms 58.541 ms 12 207.46.46.93 (207.46.46.93) 57.360 ms 57.358 ms 57.498 ms 13 207.46.43.209 (207.46.43.209) 58.007 ms * * 14 * 10.22.12.2 (10.22.12.2) 57.363 ms 57.366 ms 15 * * * 16 * * * 17 * * * This issue may be limited to the Dallas area. Can anyone else confirm access? Thank You, -- Dan White
