Don't think so - mainly referring to the general slowness of the site a few days ago. It should all be resolved now.

 

I have taken my other site off cloudflare to see what difference it will make before I make a decision about WRT. hopefully it will be better from now on.

I couldn't access the site today because the host didn't resolve… I'm using Google's dns and checking the domain gives a SERVFAIL error:

# dig www.watchrepairtalk.com @8.8.8.8              ; <<>> DiG 9.8.5-P1 <<>> www.watchrepairtalk.com @8.8.8.8;; global options: +cmd;; Got answer:;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 15544;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0;; QUESTION SECTION:;www.watchrepairtalk.com.	IN	A;; Query time: 55 msec;; SERVER: 8.8.8.8#53(8.8.8.8);; WHEN: Mon Mar 09 12:37:31 CET 2015;; MSG SIZE  rcvd: 41

One possible reason for this error is that the DNSSEC configuration is broken.

Access was very choppy with googles DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4)

In fact it was for several domains I visited.

 

Changing back to the BT DNS servers and all is fine.

 

I did a check http://www.intodns.com/watchrepairtalk.comand all seems fine with the DNS records (the two errors stated are beyond my control and do not cause errors for DNS queries for A and MX records).

 

 

Checking further I find that it is a problem for some domain owners who use the Google DNS service: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/public-dns-discuss/7Dd4pzBfpZA

 

As it is - I find nothing to fix but will keep monitoring just in case.

 

Thanks for reporting Rob.

Well done for finding that Rob.

I did look on the service status page at eNom but didn't see any issues, the article explains a lot.

 

If it happens again, I will look into deploying my own secondary DNS. It's a shame - I was using eNom's DNS service specifically to reduce admin overhead. Mind you - i've been with them for many years and the provided DNS service is usually quite stable.
