All,

DNS Lameness Philosophy ----------------------- There are two fundamentally different philosophies about lameness in reverse DNS.

Well, my perception is that reverseDNS is not well-understood by a big portion of all the players involved. On top of that, the built-in redundancy and resilience of DNS tend to hide structural problems from the "consumers" till the very last moment. Having many organisations out-source management of network services cerainly does not help. My feeling is that we should consider an information campaign first, and then think about technical measures how we can improve the service. Btw, the same problem is there on the lower levels of the delegation chains. Sigh.... Wilfried.
