Subject: [gentoo-mirrors] Intermitten DNS failures

1 Hi!
2
3 Recently, I've been getting intermittent DNS failures for
4 rsync1.us.gentoo.org with increasing frequency.
5
6 rsync1.us.g.o is a CNAME that points to gentoo-rsync.afn.org.
7 which in turn resolves to an IP.
8
9 The first name is resolved by udns1/udns2.ultradns.net. That part
10 seems to always work fine.
11
12 The name pointed to (gentoo-rsync.afn.org.) is in turn resolved
13 by freenet8.afn.org. and name.ufl.edu. Those two sometimes fail
14 me (they both do at the same time). Usually, this happens for one
15 run of my cronjob (which tries three times).
16
17 Last failure was at Thu, 04 Oct 2007 03:15:38 +0200.
18 Unfortunately, I don't have any older timestamps (I'll be sure to
19 jot them down next time).
20
21 Anybody else seeing this?
22
23 Regards,
24 Tobias
