Whois query gets us:
NS2.FACEBOOK.COM 204.74.67.132
DNS05.SF2P.TFBNW.NET
DNS04.SF2P.TFBNW.NET
NS1.FACEBOOK.COM 204.74.66.132
both 204.74.67.132 and 204.74.66.132 are pingable, but DNS queries on
them directly get various answers:
nslookup www.facebook.com 204.74.66.132
*** Can't find www.facebook.com: No answer
and
nslookup www.harvard.edu 204.74.66.132
** server can't find www.harvard.edu: SERVFAIL
This tells me the DNS is set up and semi-working, but incorrectly. It
answers correctly for a query for a domain outside its purview, but with
a "No answer" for stuff it should know.
