Re: Fixing .com DNS glue records - resolved.

I'm tempted to try making one of the authoritative name servers for a 
toy domain www.<domain> to see what happens.  Anyone tried it?

$ dnsqr ns abuse.net
2 abuse.net:
78 bytes, 1+2+0+0 records, response, noerror
query: 2 abuse.net
answer: abuse.net 251793 NS light.lightlink.com
answer: abuse.net 251793 NS www.abuse.net


I imagine this would result in slightly faster lookups, though the
high TTL and propagation make it risky, and not appropriate for high
availability sites.

Hasn't made much difference that I can see.  I did it to avoid burning
another IP address from my /24.

R's,
John
