      Hello,

      Using unbound resolver since a couple of years. Never had problems, but now I cannot resolve one specific hostname: "actauni.com" from all clients in the network.

      Server:  UnKnown
      Address:  10.70.10.1
      
      *** UnKnown can't find actauni.com: Server failed
      

      However, doing the lookup from the Diagnostics page works just fine. Also doing a dig +trace on the PFsense box seems to give a nice result:

      7bf76bba-231c-4b33-8421-ceddf4f8e9a4-image.png

      I enabled logging, but do not see any firewall blocks. Also disabled PFBlockerNG and the issue persists. Any ideas that I can try to troubleshoot?

      enabled services:

      • snort
      • pfblockerNG

        @mkcharlie said in Cannot resolve one specific host:

        actauni.com

        nslookup on my pfSEnse :

        [22.05-RELEASE][root@pfSense.local.net]/root: nslookup actauni.com
        Server:         127.0.0.1
        Address:        127.0.0.1#53
        
        Non-authoritative answer:
        Name:   actauni.com
        Address: 185.45.67.217
        

        nslookup on a PC :

        C:\Users\Gertjan>nslookup actauni.com
        Serveur :   pfSense.local.net
        Address:  192.168.1.1
        
        Réponse ne faisant pas autorité :
        Nom :    actauni.com
        Address:  185.45.67.217
        

        Btw : 192.168.1.1 is the IP of my pfSense.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??
