Package: pdnsd
Version: 1.2.7-par-1.2
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream


It seems that some DNS servers "in the wild" will respond with
"failed" to the empty queries which are used to "uptest" 
(uptest=query) the servers.

An example server would be:
217.237.148.70 (this is d-lb-a01.isp.t-ipnet.de.)

In consequence the server is marked "down" after the initial test
and not queried again util one does a "pdnsctl server name up".
Only after this manual "up" will the server answer with valid
answers to not empty questions.

I'm not quite sure how pdnsd should handle this because you could also
use another "uptest" mechanism and then it should work.
