[Sussex] [OT] Yahoo DNS Problems

[Ronan Chilvers]

Hi folks

Just a quick email to ask if anyone has a domain name with DNS hosted by
yahoo? There seems to be a problem with their DNS server reporting
circular references back to the root name servers for a domain of a pal
of mine.

For example starting at the root servers for the net. TLD (output
cropped a little):

ronan at rncubuntu:~ $ dig thesilkroadrestaurant.net NS @A.gtld-servers.net

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;thesilkroadrestaurant.net.     IN      NS

;; ANSWER SECTION:
thesilkroadrestaurant.net. 172800 IN    NS      yns1.yahoo.com.
thesilkroadrestaurant.net. 172800 IN    NS      yns2.yahoo.com.

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
yns1.yahoo.com.         172800  IN      A       66.218.71.205
yns2.yahoo.com.         172800  IN      A       216.109.116.20

ronan at rncubuntu:~ $ dig thesilkroadrestaurant.net NS @yns1.yahoo.com

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;thesilkroadrestaurant.net.     IN      NS

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
.                       518400  IN      NS      K.ROOT-SERVERS.net.
.                       518400  IN      NS      L.ROOT-SERVERS.net.
.                       518400  IN      NS      M.ROOT-SERVERS.net.
.                       518400  IN      NS      A.ROOT-SERVERS.net.
.                       518400  IN      NS      B.ROOT-SERVERS.net.
.                       518400  IN      NS      C.ROOT-SERVERS.net.

ronan at rncubuntu:~ $

Anyone else suffering this?

Cheers
