I have no idea how to solve your problem as posted, esp. since you don't include any useful configuration information. However, I see you're using 2.1.7-RELEASE. This is *incredibly* old. You should probably consider upgrading to a non-ancient version as your first step. The security holes alone are a huge problem with a release that old. See http://www.freebsd.org/ for information on getting upgraded to a newer version. Daniel This might be an outdated problem for you now, but I thought I'd put my two cents in on the PR.. Problem 1: tiki.theeddy.com (NS #3 for cybertech-usa.com and cssl-usa.com according to Network Solutions) isn't responding to nameservice queries at the moment. > server tiki.theeddy.com Default Server: tiki.theeddy.com Address: 204.186.117.1 > cybertech-usa.com Server: tiki.theeddy.com Address: 204.186.117.1 *** tiki.theeddy.com can't find cybertech-usa.com: No response from server Problem 2: tiki.theeddy.com isn't listed by dns.cssl-usa.com as an NS for cybertech-usa.com. This probably isn't critical, especially given #1. Problem 3: cybil.theeddy.com can't look up any addresses in cssl-usa.com, which is probably fairly bad for you. This is likely the source of your 'sometimes' problems, since the world will randomly pick one of the listed nameservers for cssl-usa.com, only one of which works (see #1).

I'd be happy to provide any other assistance I can outside this forum, though. Jason Young Access US(tm) Chief Network Engineer PR originator says this problem has gone away, but is looking into the issues above. This PR can be closed. Jason Young Access US(tm) Chief Network Engineer ----- Thank you very much for your time. We do not experience the problem now a days. I'll look into the issues listed.
