Hi All,

got a bit of a problem with a co.uk domain - lmbb.co.uk

when I dig lmbb.co.uk I get


 $ dig lmbb.co.uk
 
; <<>> DiG 9.2.2 <<>> lmbb.co.uk
;; global options:  printcmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
 $


so can't resolve it, ping it or anything.  Nominet tells me its fine
and when I dig the domain explicitly specifying a nameserver to use -
its all fine:


 $ dig @ns4.nic.uk lmbb.co.uk
 
; <<>> DiG 9.2.2 <<>> @ns4.nic.uk lmbb.co.uk
;; global options:  printcmd
;; Got answer:

 $ 


also other dig queries of co.uk domains work fine.  

Anyone know what's going on?  Is it Nominets problem or mine?

Cheers

Matt
