Failed authorization procedure. netsqservice.com (tls-sni-01): urn:acme:error:connection :: The server could not connect to the client to verify the domain :: DNS problem: SERVFAIL looking up A for netsqservice.com
IMPORTANT NOTES:

The following errors were reported by the server:
Domain: netsqservice.com Type: connection Detail: DNS problem: SERVFAIL looking up A for netsqservice.com
To fix these errors, please make sure that your domain name was entered correctly and the DNS A record(s) for that domain contain(s) the right IP address. Additionally, please check that your computer has a publicly routable IP address and that no firewalls are preventing the server from communicating with the client. If you’re using the webroot plugin, you should also verify that you are serving files from the webroot path you provided.
Note:
When I tried with certbot-auto --apache -d www.netsqservice.com , it worked. The naked domain has some problem in verifying with letsencrypt. Any help is highly appreciated.

///////////////////////// **In my domain record is: **
- type: A
- Hostname: www.juancarlosmx.xyz
- Value: 45.55.79.187
**How fix error? **
Look at your DNS zone dump – your zone is called www.netsqservice.com.. Indeed, you even have an A record for www.www.netsqservice.com.. netsqservice.com. is outside of your zone, and as no separate netsqservice.com. zone currently exists on DigitalOcean’s nameservers, queries for netsqservice.com. (or, say, xyz.netsqservice.com.) return an error.
I’m not experienced with how precisely to do it in DigitalOcean’s DNS interface, but you need to rename your zone to netsqservice.com., or perhaps create a new zone called netsqservice.com. and delete your current www.netsqservice.com. zone.
