Looks like an issue with the DNS. What is your domain name?

Hello, It seems the problem is with the DNS configuration. What is your domain name ? Please check the DNS records using intodns and correct them accordingly.

This does not seems to be an issue with the DNS , it seems to be the networking issue . You should check the tracert report from the location where people are not able to browse your website.

actually intodns reports nothing wrong. and sorry cannot provide the url due to adult content. i asked user to provide traceroute but they cant says it cannot be resolved but i did the mtr to their ip through the server nothing is wrong and also the visitors can visit the server ip just fine just the domain issue. I dont get why some can access and some dont

Have them try to traceroute the servers IP. If they can trace it and just not resolve it then it is a DNS issue. If they cannot traceroute it and you host dns locally that would explain being unable to resolve it. Compare a good trace versus a bad, it sounds like a local issue on your server. is "iptables -L -n" empty?

well they can trace the ip but not the domain itself. and firewall is disabled now. Actually doing a traceroute from example two singapore users who one cannot access and one can have their traceroute to the server ip almost indentical while when both tried traceroute to the domain one isnt working at all. iptable has been flushed several times and not banning ips Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination but haing 800 complaints daily seems this is increasing issue now. Even i cant access my own website.

That pretty much confirms it's a dns problem. No warnings even? Some of the issues intodns presents as a warning (eg. stealth nameservers) can cause the symptoms you describe. Edit: Another thing to check is the dns on your nameserver domain(s). So if you were using ns1.example.com as your nameserver you should run the intodns check on example.com.

Double check your local DNS settings -- I just had a similiar deal today, was the local dns setting -- had to actually look at them to find it!
