ISPs have interest in making money, right. To make money they have to provide a useful service to customer. Internet w/o functioning DNS is not useful. Therefore ISPs have quite strong interest in keeping DNS infrastructure running. The ICANN silliness in regard to dispute resolution policies left registrars exposed to various kinds of litigation, which can concievably cause serious disruptions in name service operation. Besides, ISPs spend significant amount of resources helping their customers to deal with Network Solutions and other registrars. It is all costs, and no gain. --vadim On Tue, 26 Feb 2002, Ariel Biener wrote:

The automatic assumption that ISPs can serve this role is wrong at its very basis, since each ISP is first and foremost interested in making money. If not, it wont last. With this set of priorities, an ISP cannot hold this function. I can go on about this topic for quite a long time, but since it's NANOG, I'll spare you all, and Vadim and I can take it to private channels. --Ariel -- Ariel Biener e-mail: ariel () post tau ac il PGP(6.5.8) public key http://www.tau.ac.il/~ariel/pgp.html
