That made me laugh. Thank you. Of course, it is not DNS. DNS has become the new cabling. DNS is not especially complicated, but cabling is neither. Yet, during dot.com and subsequent years the cabling was causing a lot of the problems so that we get used to first check the cabling. But it only took a few more years to realize that it is not always cabling, actually failures are normally distributed.
Is it wrong to check DNS first? No, but please realize that DNS misconfiguration is not more common than other SNAFUS.
