Okay. Last mail from me on the subject, I promise. *Something* has
been causing problems with Esat's DNS. It might be the peculiar glue
arrangements, it might be the mismatch between the esat.net NS records
on *.gtld-servers.net. and those on *.ns.esat.net, or it might be
something else entirely. Everything seems to be working at the moment
so whatever it is might have been resolved.
I'm well aware that making changes to the DNS architecture in a major
ISP is a hard problem which gives major headaches to anyone who
approaches; I have the same problems myself on a smaller scale. I'm
not into hard criticism here; the service works very well most of the
time, and I know Esat have been very diligent in chasing down problems
as they occur. But it's not true to say that there have been *no*
problems.
