| Mar 2, 2016 at 23:03 | comment | added | RCG | why do you have two servers for a smart dns setup? one can do both dns and sniproxying. Also yes, you should be pointing to google or root servers, your dns server is meant for incoming requests not for sniproxy to lookup requests. | |
| Mar 1, 2016 at 20:58 | comment | added | chovy | My problem may have been different. I had dns server with dnsmasq on server A and sniproxy on server B for a smart dns routing setup. I had set the server B dns server to use server A and this created an infinite loop. So queries took very long time when there were a lot. I changed Server B to just use Google DNS and now proxying DNS requests from server A worked fine. | |
| Mar 1, 2016 at 2:07 | comment | added | RCG | from what I remember, it's as I stated in the accepted answer comment I posted. saying that it must have been my ISP limiting my requests on my home computer or router. The other VPS to VPS dns query tests seemed to push through a ton more before any sort of hiccup. try testing from another server provider to your dns machine and see if it shows different results. | |
