That's why *two* DNS servers are required. Taking both of them down at
the same time is really stupid.

Yes, but it might also have been their total data center that had an
outage, thats one thing we dont know, as at the time, I did not know its
IP to test that side of things

Nameservers are supposed to be on two different physical networks; it
seems clear to me that CWO's are not. If nobody volunteers, perhaps
I'll email Pat and see if he has plans for adding a nameserver on a
different network.

What they are supposed to have and do have has always widely differed,
especially for small companies, be they ISP/ASP/OSP's or just another
commercial business carrying on its trade.

What's worse is the scary number of them that in order to satisfy
registrars, have primary and secondary on the same damn machine.
Typical of RH users. We even offered a colo who we found out once did
it to give him free secondary on one of ours, his reponse was typical of a
RH'r "so do i get root?" my *thoughts (not said out loud was)*
"you can get rooted" :P actual statement was *gigling* "umm no" he said,
"oh ok, no thanks". *sigh* subsequently he had problems every week,
because he was a tinkerer and managed to somehow drop his interfaces all
the time or even firewall himself off haha, we tolerated him for about 2
months before suggesting he should get someone competant to run his
server He did not like being told that, but you knew that he knew we
were right, a week later he did, and we never heard a peep out of them
since.

Interesting discussion. You have an interesting first name. I was wondering if
your last name was something like: Titution? Ervation? Tive? Pect? Plendent? Cue? Ilient?
Pectable? Ults? Toration? Erve? Olve?

Just trying to make sense of it. Never come across that name anywhere. Seems like your
parents must have had a sense of humor and a last name like the above.

It's a cool name, don't get me wrong. Good strong sound. Just unusual.
