curl (6) Couldn't resolve host

[105547111]

Hey,

My server is running well, however I keep getting these errors randomly. The script runs hourly. Sometimes its maybe 2 errors a day, other times its almost every hour.

Tried rebooting, I even added --retry 10 and 50, still does it.

curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host 'spaceflight.nasa.gov'

Its not the site it always resolves at home. If I nslookup or ping from the server its also fine, its just curl.

Anyone got any ideas how to fix it?

I can't use the IP as its a redirect...

Any help would be great...


~$ nslookup
