--------------- Well my dns is OK. I got the same answer for some strange domains on other nameservers (like cern, fermilab etc...). I index ~10000 hosts, and this happens from time to time. It is not a problem of DNS, but the DNS responds with something like [andrej@f9pc02]$ host zasluzek.terrashare.com ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached with a timeout of ~10 seconds.
