None of my internal boxes (three running FC6 plus my wife's W2K box) can
resolve the address of my ISP's web site. Other internet sites (Google,
Slashdot, weather.com, Yahoo, BBC, CNN, etc.) all work just fine. Also,
I can get to my ISP's web site if I browse from my gateway/firewall/name
server box which the internal boxes all point to for DNS. Finally, if I
use the IP address for my ISP's web site from an internal system, the
page displays as expected. This would seem to indicate that nothing is
blocking their web site.
The only thing I can find that's at all odd is dig returns:

for their domain (www.mesanetworks.net resolves to a CNAME that points
to mesanetworks.net). Note the absence of an IP address in the answer
section. Their web site includes links to a different box for support
services. These links resolve and work just fine. A dig of their
support box yields:

Note the IP address in the answer section. So far, that's the only
difference I can come up with.
If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. My ISP says
everything is ducky on their side. I don't hit their web site very
often but it used to work with no problems.
Thanks,
Dave
