inconsistent DNS results - ping vs dig vs nslookup

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I am getting what I believe to be inconsistent replies/results from 
my CentOs machine, trying to ping URLs.  Pinging by URL fails the DNS 
lookup, while pinging the IP address (that should have been returned) 
works.  The DNS lookup also fails NSLOOKUP, but interestingly, dig 
and wget return A records with the correct IP.
