It seems deeper than that, though. If you query one of the other authoritative DNS server you get the CNAME for cvsup11: ;; ANSWER SECTION: cvsup11.freebsd.org. 3600 IN CNAME freebsd- mirror0.research.uu.net. and looking that up, you get no answer for the A record. So if you query any of the NS records for uu.net, you get referred to other NS servers for research.uu.net, and no answer to the A record: ;; AUTHORITY SECTION: research.uu.net. 3600 IN NS beast.research.uu.net. research.uu.net. 3600 IN NS auth03.ns.uu.net. research.uu.net. 3600 IN NS auth50.ns.uu.net. ;; ADDITIONAL SECTION: beast.research.uu.net. 3600 IN A 63.87.62.73 Querying the auth* hosts you get the same answer back; querying beast.research.uu.net I get no response: % dig freebsd-mirror0.research.uu.net @beast.research.uu.net dig: couldn't get address for 'beast.research.uu.net': not found and even: % dig freebsd-mirror0.research.uu.net @63.87.62.73 ; <<>> DiG 9.3.2-P1 <<>> freebsd-mirror0.research.uu.net @63.87.62.73 ; (1 server found) ;; global options: printcmd ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached so something is *really* wrong I think. Normally these research.uu.net servers are just 5ms from me and I believe they're in the same data center.
