Your nitpick is warrantless - it should have been obvious from context that I was speaking of the general purpose of these name servers from our perspective - not implying they were somehow authoritative for recursive queries. If it makes you feel better I'll call them my "pedantic" and "irrelevant" servers rather than my "master" and "slave".

A nitpick here: the terms "master" and "slave" only apply in regards to authoritative name service. When you are doing recursion, this distinction is irrelevant. And no, this is not odd at all. This is typical for many or most busy domains: they do a rudimentary form of load balancing through DNS results. Nothing interesting here. -- Offlist mail to this address is discarded unless "/dev/rob0" or "not-spam" is in Subject: header _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users Proud partner.
