Well, I was talking about zone files and resource records (e.g. things you load into knot/nsd/bind9, things you receive back from kdig/dig), not log files. In my experience people who write logging code in nameservers are subject to nobody, least of all their users. That's probably harsh. But fair. > Sigh.

Try reading this specification document as an RFC :-) Joe _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
