The problem is, is that most registrars require at least two DNS servers with different IP addresses, so that is why most are suggesting that he get a free secondary DNS server. On 11/3/06, Bruno Wolff III <bruno@xxxxxxxx> wrote:

If your network is down none of your services are going to be working anyway, so having a DNS on another network isn't going to help. Some registrars may enforce this requirement though. If so you might be able to make a deal with another person in a similar situation to provide DNS service for each other.
