DNS Problems

Post by Meduza »

I have had quite a lot of problems accessing this new forum some times since the DNS cannot always resolve the domain properly. I'll would guess that something is not configured correctly.

Hi

Two changes.

1) Static IP now. GoDaddy had it on a shared / rotating one.
2) Just modified the Host @ record and set TTL to 60 minutes, up from 10 minutes.

Please let me know if these changes make things better :)

The situation seems to have improved since you made the changes. These are the only two DNS outages that I could detect since then:

Sat Feb 13 2016 19:55:01-20:02:01
Sun Feb 14 2016 08:22:01-08:25:02

Before the change it was much more. I think you could even increase the TTL to the default of 86400s (1 day) if you do not plan any server migrations in the near future.

It has been working fine here both yesterday and today, so the changes appears to have helped.
