I have bind9 dns server with resursion enabled only for internetwork. It is working normally but for one particular site it fails to provide the answer

"ipay.com.np"

When i do 

dig @mydns.server.com ipay.com.np +trace

it can fetch the answer. But normal dns query without other options does work

dig @mydns.server.com ipay.com.np 

; <<>> DiG 9.9.5-3ubuntu0.8-Ubuntu <<>> @202.94.66.2 ipay.com.np
; (1 server found)
;; global options: +cmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

Update:- now the records for domain ipay.com.np is fetched by my caching dns automagically. I havent done any thing but restarted bind server yesterday and now it works

  • The `+trace` option works because then dig does **not** use your own nameservers but contacts each server from the root server down the delegation path directly... – HBruijn Apr 18 '16 at 07:13
  • do you have some clue on why is the caching server not fetching the result for particular domain ? – sherpaurgen Apr 18 '16 at 07:30
  • *"no servers could be reached"* is as far as I know dig's interpretation of a generic [connection refused error](http://serverfault.com/questions/725262/what-causes-the-connection-refused-message) – HBruijn Apr 18 '16 at 07:42
