Maybe we need&#xA;more seeders and to include the ability for zone transfers so existing&#xA;seeders can spread their records to multiple servers running standard DNS&#xA;servers like bind etc.&#xA;&#xA;&#xA;On 15 May 2014 12:50, Andreas Schildbach &lt;andreas at schildbach.de&gt; wrote:&#xA;&#xA;&gt; I&#39;m bringing this issue up again. The current Bitcoin DNS seed&#xA;&gt; infrastructure is unstable. I assume this is because of we&#39;re using a&#xA;&gt; custom DNS implementation which is not 100% compatible. There have been&#xA;&gt; bugs in the past, like a case sensitive match for the domain name.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; Current state (seeds taken from bitcoinj):&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; mainnet:&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; seed.bitcoin.sipa.be                    OK&#xA;&gt; dnsseed.bluematt.me                     OK&#xA;&gt; dnsseed.bitcoin.dashjr.org              SERVFAIL, tried multiple ISPs&#xA;&gt; seed.bitcoinstats.com                   OK&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; testnet:&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; testnet-seed.bitcoin.petertodd.org      SERVFAIL, just from Telefonica&#xA;&gt; testnet-seed.bluematt.me                OK (but only returns one node)&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; Note: Telefonica is one of Europe&#39;s largest ISPs.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; I would try to improve DNS myself, but I&#39;m not capable of writing C. My&#xA;&gt; &#34;fix&#34; would be to reimplement everything in Java -- I doubt you guys&#xA;&gt; would be happy with that.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------&#xA;&gt; &#34;Accelerate Dev Cycles with Automated Cross-Browser Testing - For FREE&#xA;&gt; Instantly run your Selenium tests across 300+ browser/OS combos.&#xA;&gt; Get unparalleled scalability from the best Selenium testing platform&#xA;&gt; available&#xA;&gt; Simple to use.
