ok, now we are getting somewhere!

So of the two servers that are listed the primary one, mine, does not respond


 the secondary from AT&T is not responsive

 finally as you'll see below pinging t

Internal DNS is being returned as the external DNS number, that's a third thing I need to fix up.

So I need to find out what's the correct AT&T DNS reference that I should be using and
second I need to fix my own DNS so that I return the external not the internal IP

Retest with improved  DNS parsing  method, thx again..

Others have given good answers, but let me show you how I parse it...

>whois linuxlighthouse.com | grep ^Name
Name Server: WS.LINUXLIGHTHOUSE.COM
Name Server: NS3.ATTDNS.COM

First one is not useful since it lives inside the domain. See:
https://ns1.com/blog/glue-records-and-dedicated-dns

So I check the other one:

>dig @NS3.ATTDNS.COM linuxlighthouse.com any

; <<>> DiG 9.11.28-RedHat-9.11.28-1.fc33 <<>> @NS3.ATTDNS.COM linuxlighthouse.com any

Note the part "WARNING: recursion requested but not available", so it is saying that it is not authoritative for that domain.

So I check to see that it is the auth for its own domain:

Yup, good there. So you have two name servers listed. We need that glue record to figure out where one is and the other claims to not know who you are.
