Linode DNS outage
Raw
gistfile1.txt
My startup site's DNS Notable.ac is hosted on Linode.
It appears the DNS server from both Level 3 and Google can't resolve Notable's domain name but if I ask nslook to query Linode's DNS servers, it responds correctly.
Either Linode's DNS is down or it can't contact Google/L3s'.
$ nslookup
