@MikeyB When you query OpenDNS's cache, it comes back with the vendor's proper IP address though. So now... just curious... what does that make you think?
@MikeyB I can nslookup against OpenDNS servers and get the proper IP address on the same box. When they telnet to their update server, they get OpenDNS NXdomain cache miss IP.
@MikeyB No access to dig. Just a nslookup interface. Remember, I have no shell to this appliance.
@MikeyB So 1) There's a strange IPv6 response or something, but not an official AAAA record being delivered. 2) OpenDNS's IP address is in the mix somehow, 3) There appears to be caching on the appliance but they're saying it's not.
While I applaud your detail, you should start with the "answer" and then include the necessary or extraneous details after the answer itself. So I would suggest making your "Nothing stops you doing this" your first sentence and explain why the OP can do this, rather than giving an explanation of what subnetting is. — TheCleaner16 secs ago
:15135576 That's opendns's fault - they have a derpy DNS server out there that returns the IPv6 nxdomain address for a hostname with only an IPv4 record
@MikeyB So it appears that one time their update cron job didn't get a proper response from OpenDNS, and somehow they keep getting the response over and over and over again, but locally I think? Anyway I just stopped the pcap so I'll check the packets.
@MikeyB But no other application on the appliance appears to be having this issue. I have a web based nslookup tool that the appliance allows me to use for troubleshooting and I get the proper response. Ping on the box gets a proper response. It's just one or two apps that are seeing this problem.

@Wesley The solution is clearly to STOP USING OPENDNS. Push that at the vendor.
@MikeyB But still that doesn't quite help me understand why every app on the server doesn't care about it, but telnet does, and apparently their update script relies on telnet (WTF)
@Jacob I'm looking for something under $9k that is stylish, has electronic everything, etc. and 4 doors. I considered an Xterra, an Acura TL Type S, etc. I'm open to suggestions though.
Ages ago, it seemed like 100k miles was the 'aging point' of a car, either some type of milestone or a warning to start searching for something new.
As engineering gets better though, it seems like that's not the case. 100k miles nowadays seems like nothing for a car, I have a 2001 Buick Regal t...
@Wesley Linux (tends to) have separate telnet and telnet6 binaries. Whereas on FreeBSD, telnet tries IPv6 address first and if it fails falls back to IPv4.
@MikeyB freebsd telnet defaults to v6? There's too many variables at play since I don't have a shell on the thing. I'm trying to trace this through my head to answer why this would have just started on the 22nd. Maybe OpenDNS suddenly inserted the v6 answer on .220 on the 22nd?
@MikeyB Okay fine, got a BIND recurser I can change it to for a week or so? =)
@TheCleaner I know what I just said, but I'd be leery about buying a car that old. It's one thing if I've owned it forever, but someone else's problems are someone else's problems
@MikeyB Right. I was looking at a Micro instance or something. DO might be good. I'm interested in seeing how they work, but I've also got a few spare pizza boxes in my rack so might as well use them.
@mossy I've had some great "junkers". My best was a 95 Maxima SE I bought for $2k that had 255k miles on it. I drove it for 4 years only changing the oil, tires, and brake pads. That car was a great car. Bulletproof engine the VQ is.
@mossy a gixxer is awesome...but I'm too old for one now. I'd like a decent cruiser at this point.
@BigHomie yeah the 3800 is a good engine. Easy to repair, plenty of cheap replacement parts, etc. That v6 was used in practically everything GM made it would seem.
@KevinSoviero --one-file-system when removing a hierarchy recursively, skip any directory that is on a file system different from that of the corresponding command line argument
@TheCleaner yeah, I had a '94 grand am I bought used in '05 and it was awesome, drove it from Detroit to Lansing (~80 mi one way) pretty much every weekend, only leaked oil so I kept a 5qt container of it in the back, it was a very small leak
@RobM I have no need for ReiserFS support since 10+years of using it, instead, ext4 all the time is giving me problems, (eg, yesterday), and I am hardly can find support, or have to go a long distance to find support. — Peter Teoh13 mins ago
I have 5 different cars that in my mind I'd love to own, but will probably never happen (and possibly good that it won't). Sunbeam Tiger VW Corrado VR6 2001 Audi S4 2001 BMW 540i sport
@KevinSoviero give me that list for "used under $10k" :) I've been trying to find such a list. Autotrader has one, but it sucks. It's based on their own likes...I want something Consumer Reports style with actual data to back up their claims.
Generically, whether you're talking about SCSI LUNs (SAN) or network file systems (NAS), thin provisioned storage is when you tell the storage client that it has more space than you've actually allocated to it. This has no risks on its own, but if you don't have enough actual storage to allow eve...
I'm looking for an answer based on quality (they don't make 'em like they used to), price (are new cars even worth the $), and/or reliability/low maintenance (where leasing is attractive) which option makes the most sense. I'm not asking what to buy, just in general what would experts on the site...
@ewwhite That's what you think. The fake identity I set up under your name to commit crimes with certainly did go to high school. Where you committed some impressively profitable financial crimes, BTW.

@ewwhite I mean they have college prep, and there are vocational schools that are supplementary, but I don't think the voc schools have that level of training for sys admins, maybe there's a job there for me
It's not a commonly used term that I'm aware of, and I'm sure that you next girlfriend won't appreciate your use of that term, should you choose to continue dating despite your epic heartbreak.

I can't hear "late girlfriend" without having my heart rate spike, and have an urge to flee the country. I used a rubber, there's no way she should be "late."
