Query refused. The name server refuses to perform the requested operation for policy reasons.
Wann Sie es sehen
The server rejected your query due to access control — for example, a recursive resolver that only serves its own network, or a zone transfer blocked by ACL.
Wie man es behebt
Check the server's allow-query, allow-recursion, or allow-transfer ACLs. If you are not authorized to use this resolver, switch to a public DNS service.

Wann Sie es sehen
A DNS UPDATE failed because a specific RRset (e.g., an A record) already exists when the prerequisite required it to be absent.
Wie man es behebt
Delete the conflicting RRset before retrying the update, or adjust your prerequisite conditions to match the actual zone state.
