+1 I assumed in my "it depends" answer that whatever DNS service the company was presently using might have such advanced services /which they were happy with/. Some people say ISPs are "lying" with rewriting and so forth but let's assume, since it wasn't stated otherwise, that the company in question is happy with the service they receive. There are many reasons for this. They might even be using a third-party (off-prem) DNS/firewall solution. I don't like the implicit notion that "well they're not big enough to need/deserve advanced features/toys like we get to have". To summarize my previous answer: I would expect the 2 IT bods would continue to argue for outsourcing; however there might be others within the organization with other concerns or objectives arguing otherwise. Let me add that rationally speaking IT is not likely to be a core competency in an organization where the IT resourcing is at a 1:50 ratio: this is not a software or internet services shop. -- Fred Morris _______________________________________________ dns-operations mailing list dns-operations@lists.dns-oarc.net https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-operations dns-jobs mailing list https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-jobs
