Ask HN: Is anybody facing issues with GoDaddy DNS

Posted by pritambarhate on Monday November 14, 2016 @08:29AM
from the ask-hn dept.

From past hour or so we are facing issues to connect to domains which are using GoDaddy DNS. I checked from some AWS servers too. It seems that from Asia we are not able to connect to GoDaddy DNS.

From some servers in AWS Singapore region:

ping ns73.domaincontrol.com ping ns74.domaincontrol.com

Results in Unknown host exception.

But from US region the ping works.

Is anybody else also facing similar issues?

Yes. From a Singapore Digital Ocean instance I cannot lookup domains (using dig) for the company I work for that have DNS hosted by godaddy.com. I am able to resolve some personal domains hosted on custom DNS servers. Weird.

A dig +trace works fine until it times out at godaddy:

dig: couldn't get address for 'pdns03.domaincontrol.com': no more

Yes. My personal website has been down for more than an hour now.
