Can someone from Akamai report as to what happened? I did not see any notice on EdgeControl but I did get email from my auto-alerts set up at Akamai as follows:

So I'm curious as to what happened.

Thanks,

Looks like some of akamai's nameservers have misplaced themselves and yahoo.

There is no A records, correct.
There is a CNAME though:
www.wa1.b.yahoo.com.    45      IN      CNAME   www-real.wa1.b.yahoo.com.
www-real.wa1.b.yahoo.com. 45    IN      A       209.131.36.158

I am unable to resolve www.yahoo.com.  Tracing DNS back from the root
servers shows that www.yahoo.com is a CNAME to www.wa1.b.yahoo.com and
there are no A records for that hostname.
Anyone have more details or a Yahoo contact?  I'm unable to get to their
webpage as it is :-)
