"DNS Wobbly"
 
   LAST EDITED ON Mar-06-14 AT 03:27 PM (EST) by Gryphon (admin)
 
[ Yeah, you know what you didn't want there was [pre]. :) --G. ]

I'm getting the occasional point where chrome throws a wobbly and says www.eyrie-productions.com doesn't exist. A bit of digging:

$ chiark-named-conf eyrie-productions.com
eyrie-productions.com foreign
eyrie-productions.com: warning: unable to find NS RRset at <71.19.146.139> (miranda.dragonmage.net, in glue from <192.35.51.30> f.gtld-servers.net, server for com)
eyrie-productions.com ns2.gweep.net <72.93.233.150> has 2014021602
eyrie-productions.com: warning: lame server <71.19.146.139> (miranda.dragonmage.net, in glue from <192.35.51.30> f.gtld-servers.net, server for com)

eyrie-productions.com: warning: inconsistent serial number and/or SOA MNAME:
eyrie-productions.com: 2014021602 ns.gweep.net from <72.93.233.150> ns2.gweep.net, in glue from <192.35.51.30> f.gtld-servers.net, server for com
eyrie-productions.com: 2014021601 ns.gweep.net from <72.93.233.147> ns.gweep.net, in glue from <72.93.233.150> ns2.gweep.net, in glue from <192.35.51.30> f.gtld-servers.net, server for com
chiark-named-conf: 3 warning(s) in 1 zone(s); 0 zone(s) checked ok.

reveals two problems - firstly that the root name servers think that miranda.dragonmage.net is a DNS server for the domain, but it doesn't. Secondly the two gweep.net servers have different serial numbers for the domain.

I expect this is fallout from the forum move; but I'm posting in case it's fallout that's not being fixed already :-).

   the different serial numbers were from me hand-tweaking the zonefile
on both servers, after finding that both were config'd as Master.

I'll sync them up.

   miranda got the updated IP for ns.gweep.net for eyrie.net, and I forgot I needed to do that for eyrie-productions.com as well. My bad.

Fixed.

   Yay!

It was downright weird for me -- I had no problems at all reading the forum at home, but from the work network, or even from my work laptop at home but logged into the work VPN? It was spotty as hell.

I've had occasional difficulties getting to the site from my phone since the migration, but I've just assumed it was, you know, Verizon Wireless living down to the first half of the name - particularly since switching to wifi mode usually fixed it (guessing that forces it to look at the local connection's default DNS instead of VZW's? not sure).

   Not sure if this is related, but I keep getting booted out of audio play via the in-browser player. Was working fine yesterday while listening to Shepard's 11, but this morning, Renegades of Paragon keeps glitching up and freezing (when I can get the page to load). Started in Firefox. Got the audio started in Chrome, but froze up again while I was typing this.

Hmm. I'm not sure precisely what's going on there, but it's not something DNS would affect. Those are just MP3 files being served raw, meant to be downloaded, archived, put in libraries, played on your gadget of choice, whatever. Just playing them in a browser window like that is Not The Intended Use, and I don't know what might be messing with it - any little disruption of traffic at either end or anywhere in between could trip it up, particularly if you're not pausing and letting it buffer the files. If it can't download at more than a second's worth of audio per second, obviously, it's not gonna play right.

TLDR: Not a DNS problem so much as a streaming-is-for-suckers problem. :)

But convenient for listening in the office. :)
Seems to have resolved itself. Didn't appear to be a buffering issue, so probably hiccups on the campus connection.
