Certainly not defensible. The AD bit isn't the only part. What if the CNAME target is spoofed (BOGUS) or something? Actually, I believe most end-clients don't look at AD, so it's just the SERVFAILs that protect them from using spoofed data. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
