Hi,

dig d.bl.xrbl.pl soa @1.1.1.1

Tested from 2 different locations
dig +short CHAOS TXT id.server @1.1.1.1
“WAW”
dig +short CHAOS TXT id.server @1.1.1.1
“HAM”

Here test with 1.1.1.1 shows correct answer

Currently I receive:

dig  d.bl.xrbl.pl SOA @1.1.1.1

But I’m not sure all is right in the world WRT the authoritative nameservers.

Cloudflare practices query minimization which could also be a factor here with what appears to be a lame delegation for bl.xrbl.pl.

@milk knows more about the obscure DNS stuff than I do, but that’s my hot take FWIW.

[gwyneth.llewelyn]

AFAIK xrbl.pl like so many other providers of DNS-based block lists, is blacklisting 1.1.1.1.

And possibly VeriSign uses 1.1.1.1 these days as well, thus their replies are also being blocked

That’s the way to get it works It’s pointed in many tutorials.

I created that dns-based block-list few days ago & I’m not blocking anything coming from 1.1.1.1,1.0.0.1 and ips related to CF dns.

Like in my first test with DigWebInterface and from cscharff test it shows it works with 1.1.1.1, my test dig from “HAM” and “WAW” location in first post shows error. Looks like geo based problem.
