while i'm on record has holding that view, it turns out that RFC 1035 does describe recursion and authority as co-residing in a server. so while this is in my view a dangerous practice and a bad idea, it's well supported by the scriptures. > After all that's what all lookups do, give you an IP address you connect to. i don't think so. dns lookups have many purposes unrelated to returning IP addresses. i'd like to see 100 more things like SSHFP this decade. vixie
