Dear colleagues,
The RIPE NCC's authoritative DNS infrastructure is experiencing a very
high query rate at the moment. This query rate is more than our routers
can handle, and as a result, responses from our name servers are sporadic.
We are working on mitigating this denial-of-service event. Please check
our service outages page for updates.

Dear colleagues,
We published a new article by Geoff Huston on RIPE Labs:
New gTLD Concerns: Dotless Names and Name Collisions
https://labs.ripe.net/Members/gih/dotless-names
In the long discussions about the new generic Top level Domains (gTLD),
there were two technical topics that were the subject of many assertions
and little in the way of observed data. The first concerned the
viability of a so-called "dotless" name, where the gTLD label itself
contains an IP address in the DNS, and the second concerns the concept
of "name collisions" between existing local use of a name and the same
name being delegated as a new gTLD. This article explores these two
topics, and adds some data to the debate in the way of observed
behaviours of the way common operating systems and browsers handle names.
Kind Regards,
Mirjam Kuehne

Dear Colleague,
I have faced a problem and I want to address it to you; I hope you can help me.
I have created 77.104.67.162 PTR record in my DNS Servers and make its domain in Ripe Database 67.104.77.in-addr.arpa on Monday 4th of November. However, DNS servers do not resolve this IP address. I checked this IP in my DNS Server and Ripe database and It seems everything is OK. I promise you can help me.
Best Regards.
