Guru Test - Couldn't get AAAA for NS

[gnazarey]

I am trying to pass the GURU Test, but it couldn't get AAAA for the NS. I have checked locally and remote and I am getting the correct results.

Is there a dns cache timer?

If I query the b.gtld-servers.net AAAA, I get the correct results.

Yep, .com uses a 48hour cache, so changes to your domains ns servers will take two days for people to notice the change, unless they flush their dns servers, or their cache overflows.

[jarsenio]

You have you timers set to 24 hours.  Set them to 5 minutes while you're still configuring things. 

Either way, you're resolving a AAAA right now.

# dig aaaa www.ipv6.naz.com +short
2001:470:e2a6:1::4

HE doesn't know about it though

Code Select Expand


[carl@mars ~]$ dig aaaa ipv6.naz.com @2001:470:200::2 +short
[carl@mars ~]$

what can you do if your dns provider doesnt have AAAA records for the name servers?

[cholzhauer]

You're going to need to change DNS providers

Hi there


Change DNS provider.
I run my own DNS and a friend runs my secondary.
I changed registrar because they couldn't handle AAAA glue records.

Thats exactly what I want to do, just need to get protocol 41 passed through on my colocation server and im up and running.

That however is taking ages to sort out.

[ag33k]

I have transferred my domain to dns.he.net so it should work once the TTL runs out.

Thanks guys

[edit] Anyone know how long it takes for the DNS to up for the test?

I'm having the same problem. I had originally used my own server, but switched to he.net's because I thought there was some problem with it... and it still doesn't work. Everything seems ok to me, though.


Step 1 should work:

octavarium:~ jollino$ dig ns piccopicco.info +short
ns3.he.net.
ns5.he.net.
ns4.he.net.
ns2.he.net.
octavarium:~ jollino$ dig aaaa ns2.he.net +short
2001:470:200::2
octavarium:~ jollino$ dig aaaa ns3.he.net +short
2001:470:300::2
octavarium:~ jollino$ dig aaaa ns4.he.net +short
2001:470:400::2
octavarium:~ jollino$ dig aaaa ns5.he.net +short
2001:470:500::2



And so should step 2:

octavarium:~ jollino$ dig aaaa piccopicco.info @2001:470:200::2 +short
2001:470:26:2ad::c000
octavarium:~ jollino$ dig aaaa piccopicco.info @2001:470:300::2 +short
2001:470:26:2ad::c000
octavarium:~ jollino$ dig aaaa piccopicco.info @2001:470:400::2 +short
2001:470:26:2ad::c000
octavarium:~ jollino$ dig aaaa piccopicco.info @2001:470:500::2 +short
2001:470:26:2ad::c000


It's been like that for around 24 hours now. Any hints? Is it just a matter of waiting longer?

Thanks.

[cholzhauer]

I'd give it some more time and see what happens...there are times though where HE has to go restart some stuff for everything to work.

[jollino]

I just tried again and it worked. I am now a Sage. Whoo!
However, I thought the total points would be 1000 after completing all the tests minus the "daily chores". I am at 907 though! Is that normal? It looks like will take a while to reach 1500... :)

[cholzhauer]

Did you take the rest of the quizzes on the left?

[jollino]

I already had... and this morning I'm suddenly at 1007 points. Weird. :) Maybe the extra 100 points are added separately? Ah well, all's good. :)
