DNS Resolver Issues

x2rl

Can't get this domain to work from my PC (works fine on the phone no wifi on)

Piholes dns is 10.0.0.1 which is pfsense.

Any ideas?

nslookup x3rl.com
Server:  Pihole
Address:  10.0.0.222

*** Pihole can't find x3rl.com: Server failed

x2rl

Without pihole

nslookup x3rl.com
Server:  pfSense.localdomain
Address:  10.0.0.1

*** pfSense.localdomain can't find x3rl.com: Server failed

Hi,

Do a more general DNS check for that domain. Or even the www subdomain.

Use a tool like https://www.zonemaster.net/domain_check - and that domain, and one that you it exists - liek your own web site.

Its close to non-existent. Or the domain name maintainer has some DNS issues. Maybe he forget to renew the domain rent ?

So yes, pihole and pfSense can't make something from nothing ;)
