That's good news. It could mean we have a minor porting nit.

Same here. I use 9.11.28 because it worked until now.

You can always use
dig @8.8.8.8 pmoylan.org
to bypass your cache, but the results won't differ.
>Interesting hang.
Definitely. It tells me no one has ever run dig v9.11.36 or v9.11.27.

Peter's situation is unusual. I appears that duckdns's name servers are
the authority for mail.pmoylan.org and wiz.net.au is the authoriy for
pmoylan.org. At least that what dig soa is telling me.
