Is anyone else seeing issues with Level3's DNS servers? We got an alert our mail servers were down but mail is flowing normally, if slowly. Trying to resolve our domain names against Google's 8.8.8.8 and OpenDNS's 208.67.222.222 servers seems fine but 4.2.2.2 and 4.2.2.1 is spotty at best, failing to resolve in most cases. Testing www.google.com <http://www.google.com> and www.amazon.com <http://www.amazon.com> yields the same results. _________________________________________ Dann Schuler Network Administrator MCSA 2012, MCITP, MCTS, Security+, Server+ <mailto:dschuler@ksrinc.com> dschuler@ksrinc.com (315) 470-1350 x187

Not sure about L3, but I have confirmation that GoDaddy Premium DNS services are all down at the moment. I spoke with a rep and he informed me that they don't have an estimate on return to service yet but that they have all hands on deck working on this. *Sean E.
