dns-errors all the way long: how to run a round-robin the right way?

dilbert2010

hello dear experts,

i have Issues - DNS errors : webserver spits out 500er error,

But wait: This only happens here on the desktop

if i run a test on a remote-test-system all seems okay - from different testpoints all over the planet.

Why is this so. How to test the DNS - in a stress-test!?

love to hear from you

The best way would be to make a popular web-site. 😃

What's the DNS name you'd like to test? Putting it up here might get it "stress tested" 😉

From the US, I can load the webpage, and if I ask for DNS information I get an "A record" of 193.34.68.118 from four different locations in 3 time zones: the LA area, Dallas, TX, Springfield, MO, and Raleigh, NC.

If you have problems only on your desktop, I'd first check the HOSTS file for any entries, then figure out what servers your DNS system is querying when it asks for f-s-j.de ... if, for example, you're querying your own router, you might look there for anything that would cause problems (upstream DNS pointing to a local development environment, strange firewall rules, etc).
