Remote connections intermittent

[l0rdphi1]

This seems to be extremely intermittent, but this is what's happening:

wget http://www.yahoo.com
--01:43:21-- http://www.yahoo.com/
=> `index.html'
Resolving www.yahoo.com... failed: Host not found.

Or:

wget http://www.directadmin.com
--01:44:20-- http://www.directadmin.com/
=> `index.html'
Resolving www.directadmin.com... failed: Host not found.

This happens eveywhere. PHP for instance:

<?php
 
include "http://www.yahoo.com";
 
?>

Output:

Warning: main(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /home/admin/domains/liquenox.net/public_html/test.php on line 3

Warning: main(http://www.yahoo.com): failed to open stream: Resource temporarily unavailable in /home/admin/domains/liquenox.net/public_html/test.php on line 3

Warning: main(): Failed opening 'http://www.yahoo.com' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/admin/domains/liquenox.net/public_html/test.php on line 3

Something to do with named I suppose.. but what? I haven't touched named.

Do a dig for yahoo.com or directadmin.com and post that. It should give you something like these ip's:

This way you know if your local name server is working...

Will do next time this cuts out. Working O.K. right now.

 

[DirectAdmin Support]

Check your /etc/resolv.conf ... if you are running your own copy of named (yes) you only need 127.0.0.1 as a nameserver so that lookups are all queried locally,which should give you increased performance and reliability.

Thanks John. Hopefully that will fix it
