DNS Resolver fails with SERVFAIL but 1.1.1.1 resolves host just fine
-
I have a strange problem. When I try to resolve host c.na80.content.force.com using DNS Resolver (on 127.0.0.1) I get a SERVFAIL:

When I try using 1.1.1.1 it works:

If I try using +trace and 127.0.0.1 it seems to be working - not sure from the output:

I can ping and query each nameserver correctly:
force.com. 172800 IN NS udns1.salesforce.com. force.com. 172800 IN NS udns2.salesforce.com. force.com. 172800 IN NS udns3.salesforce.com. force.com. 172800 IN NS udns4.salesforce.com. force.com. 172800 IN NS pch1.salesforce-dns.com.
Eventually I found that turning OFF
Enable DNSSEC Support
in DNS Resolver allows the query to work. What does this mean? That their DNSSEC has an invalid signature? Why does 1.1.1.1 and all other DNS servers I tried work except 127.0.0.1? -
@pwnell I'm having the same problem with manage.kmail-lists.com.
The last time this happened it was a temporary issue with a domains DNSSEC settings which resolved itself, but this particular domain has been broken for months and I don't understand why as its not using DNSSEC. :(
As you noticed, turning off DNSSEC fixes it, but its a pretty crappy fix as its removing a layer of DNS security for ALL lookups then.

The sub domain "c.na80.content.force.com" isn't using DNSSEC - see https://dnsviz.net/d/c.na80.content.force.com/dnssec/
( the graph is pure art btw. This can't be a good sign )
It resolves just fine using the resolver using the default settings :

As you can see, 127.0.0.1 (which is the shortcut to 127.0.0.1:53 or the entrance of the local Resolver on pfSense) does its job.
It returns a bunch of CNAME'S
Each of them can be resolved to A's. -

@Alex-Atkin-UK Nope - just had DNSSEC on in DNS Resolver and my DNS in setup points to 1.1.1.1

Forwarding and DNSSEC doesn't make sense.
You can safely shut down DNSSEC. See https://forum.netgate.com/topic/139771/setup-dns-over-tls-on-pfsense-2-4-4-p2-guide for more info. You just have to trust Cloudfare that they give you the correct info.@Alex-Atkin-UK @pwnell Cloudfare is 1.1.1.1. It's considered better to use the domain name 'cloudflare-dns.com" although the "1.1.1.1" ALT domain is included in the list.

@Gertjan Thanks - I have switched to TLS and disabled DNSSEC.
