We had the exact same problem. Also noticed with SSH first. With
10.17.34 which we dont have a zonefile for. Since 16:00 (CEST) we have
had timeouts whenever trying to lookup stuff in that range - we never
had this before. This also affected the ability to lookup some 192.168
addresses - it partly worked, partly didn't work.
But now, since 00:15 CEST approx suddenly the timeouts have disappeared
and everything seem to work again!
A global glitch in the matrix?
