Fix for now ...

Comment 1 Santiago Pastorino 2016-10-12 19:31:44 UTC 
Found the issue.

If you run ...

# host -t srv _http._tcp.portsnap.FreeBSD.org
_http._tcp.portsnap.FreeBSD.org has SRV record 1 10 80 ec2-sa-east-1.portsnap.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.portsnap.FreeBSD.org has SRV record 2 10 80 isc.portsnap.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.portsnap.FreeBSD.org has SRV record 2 10 80 sourcefire.portsnap.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.portsnap.FreeBSD.org has SRV record 2 10 80 your-org.portsnap.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.portsnap.FreeBSD.org has SRV record 3 10 80 ec2-eu-west-1.portsnap.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.portsnap.FreeBSD.org has SRV record 4 10 80 ec2-ap-northeast-1.portsnap.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.portsnap.FreeBSD.org has SRV record 4 10 80 ec2-ap-southeast-2.portsnap.freebsd.org.

As you can see your-org.portsnap.freebsd.org is in the list. And that is run here https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/release/11.0.1/usr.sbin/portsnap/portsnap/portsnap.sh?view=markup#l368
Comment 2 Santiago Pastorino 2016-10-12 19:36:08 UTC 
And also ...

# host isc.portsnap.freebsd.org
Host isc.portsnap.freebsd.org not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

isc does not resolve neither.

Not sure what was the intention but seems like those entries should be removed from portsnap DNS servers.
Comment 3 Colin Percival freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-10-12 20:37:50 UTC 
The your-org mirror crashed because we threw a lot of 11.0-RELEASE upgrading load at it.  It's back up now.

I'll look into the situation with the ISC mirror.
Comment 4 Colin Percival freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-10-12 20:54:41 UTC 
The ISC mirror went away and is not coming back.  I've garbage collected those DNS entries.
Comment 5 Santiago Pastorino 2016-10-12 21:07:56 UTC 
Cool, now is better.

Still ...

Latest snapshot on server is older than what we already have!
Cowardly refusing to downgrade from Wed Oct 12 12:08:36 EDT 2016
to Mon Oct 10 15:04:19 EDT 2016.
Comment 6 Colin Percival freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-10-12 21:20:02 UTC 
The your-org mirror is still resyncing after some crash-related data loss.  Try using ec2-eu-west-1.portsnap.freebsd.org for now.
