usno.navy.mil disappeared?

Anyone know what is going on with The US Naval Observatory? Usno.navy.mil appears to be completely unresolvable. Affecting access to tick and tock time servers. $ nslookup -type=NS usno.navy.mil 8.8.8.8 *** google-public-dns-a.google.com can't find usno.navy.mil: Server failed Server: google-public-dns-a.google.com Address: 8.8.8.8 -Steve S.

Looks like either a DNSSEC problem or their servers are down/unreachable. http://dnsviz.net/d/usno.navy.mil/dnssec/ - Jared

Indeed, their four name servers do not reply to most packets. Sometimes, it works: % check-soa -i usno.navy.mil charon.usno.navy.mil. 199.211.133.5: OK: 201709123 (180 ms) metis.usnogps.navy.mil.

But I'm surprised by the number of NXDOMAIN (unresponding servers should trigger SERVFAIL or timeout).

As often with the Internet, "it depends". It depends on your location (more on the AS than on the city you're in). That's why it is important to use several vantage points (like the RIPE Atlas probes). It also depends on time: in the last minutes, I've seen the name servers replying/timeouting.

Could also be a result returned from cache. Clear it or query a NS directly and see if it actually still resolves.
