I'm having trouble resolving abs.twimg.com. For this reason, twitter.com cannot be accessed. Sometimes images just don't come.
I am using Windows DNS Server with Root Hints and DNS server does not go and resolve for me.
If I query 8.8.8.8 directly from the client, it is resolved.
Instead of returning an A record, the CNAME record returns and ends there.
I'm also attaching a screenshot of the request to my DNS server.
172.16.16.43 client's ip address
10.1.1.81 DNS server ip address(Public : 194.27.153.4)
My dig +trace records look like this:
; <<>> DiG 9.18.12-0ubuntu0.22.04.2-Ubuntu <<>> +trace abs.twimg.com
