Perhaps you can point me at a DNS server that when queried for a non-authoritative answer does not lower TTL (within TTL period) on subsequent requests? If the problem that you describes does exist then it must be very rare, or really old and broken software. I still hear about people running their email system through mailgate on Windows 98 with dialup, at a certain point you just have to tell those people to get with the program. -- Fraser Campbell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.wehave.net/ Georgetown, Ontario, Canada Debian GNU/Linux -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
