      Moin,

      same here, pkg00 and pkg01 still resolves to the same addresses as before when asking netgates DNS Servers

      root@fra3:~# dig +short @ns1.netgate.com pkg00.atx.netgate.com
      208.123.73.207
      root@fra3:~# nmap -Pn -p443 208.123.73.207

        It's possible that it's still cached. If you run a command such as host -t srv _https._tcp.packages-beta.netgate.com it should be returning files00.netgate.com and files01.netgate.com.

        Give it a few more minutes and try it again.

          Ah. now it works, a pkg-static -d update is now connecting to files00.netgate.com instead of pkg00.atx.netgate.com

          Thanks!

            Output of the above command is:

            I will try what @xplChris sugested

              It works after I used:

              pkg-static -d update
              

              Thank you

                Well I also lost available packages all at same time, restarted unbound still no luck getting it to work

                You should see them again after you fix this.

                Try what @xplChris sugested

                    host -t srv _https._tcp.packages-beta.netgate.com

                        Then you have some other unrelated issue, start a new thread.

                          @jimp Sorry.

                          Maybe its related to this... the dropdown is empty

                            As per information provided by @jimp this looks good. Sorry, but I don't know what to suggest further.

                              That wouldn't be related to this. Start your own thread.

                                I'm running 2.7.0-DEVELOPMENT (amd64) built on Fri Mar 11 06:21:33 UTC 2022 and it will not update. I tried restarting unbound, but it made no difference.

                                Any suggestions?

                                UPDATE: I tried to update from the console and this time it worked.
