Title: "DIG PTR" problems?
Post by: divad27182 on May 28, 2017, 10:04:08 PM
Is anybody else having problems with the "DIG PTR" daily test today?  All the others worked fine for me, but not the reverse DNS lookup.  I've tried a number of addresses, and it always says (after correctly parsing the query), something like:
Summary of user's dig query
IPv6 Address: 2001:470:1f06:1356::2
Status: NOERROR
Reverse ip6.arpa:
2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.6.5.3.1.6.0.f.1.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.
Validating user's dig query
Result: Fail
Reason: Record mismatch

(It almost looks like the test machine can't do reverse DNS lookups as of today.)

P.S. FYI: I find tunnel broker transit networks to be a wonderful source of DNS lookups.  They may not ping, but they are all wonderfully filled in.  Thank you he.net.   :)

Well, I reported this to ipv6@he.net, and in 20 minutes it was fixed.  Excellent work he.net.
