#sysadmins #mastoadmin #mastoadmins #selfhosting questions re: DNS...

Has anyone hosting their own instance seen a massive increase in DNS queries to their domain.

I don’t host my own DNS, and my DNS provider can’t give me logs of requests, so I can’t even check which subdomain it might relate to.

I’m not sure what I could do to avoid it – the overage is not a large amount of money, but it’s recurrent and annoying, and started when I started this instance.

I changed the TTL to 2 weeks and it didn’t make a difference.

I’m not sure what else to check.

Can anyone recommend a DNS provider I could use temporarily that I could get logs from?

I don’t want domain hosting or web hosting, or masto hosting.

Thanks!

@nixCraft pretty shure once the #AIbubble crashes down #Sysadmins will be able to negotiate hard, and everyone else should also negotiate harder as well!

Midweek question for #Sysadmins and #IT folks:

When things slow down a bit toward the end of the year, do you tend to:
• Clean up old configs and tech debt
• Experiment in your homelab
• Learn something new
• Or… just keep the lights on and coast?

No wrong answers. Curious where everyone’s head is right now.
