If you’ve ever wanted to meet the men behind the mics, Matt and I will be speaking on a panel on DNSSEC at this year’s FOSE conference in Washington, D.C., from July 19th to 21st. (We’re not speaking for three days, but the show runs that long. We’re only speaking on Tuesday at 3:15.)
The other guys on the panel are no slouches, either: Nate Meyer from F5 and Alan Clegg from ISC.
The folks who run FOSE have graciously offered to extend a 20% discount to our listeners, too. For details, click here.

In this star-studded episode, taped at Dyn Inc.‘s second annual “Inside Baseball” event, Matt and Cricket are joined by a “who’s who” of DNS luminaries. They answer questions from Bob Harold (who previously received a tee shirt and does not want another) about whether CNAME records terminate a subtree of the namespace, from Warren Kumari about why a domain name that owns a CNAME record can’t own any other record types, from Wayne Ketterer about how to set up DNS so that a given domain name maps to one address internally and another externally, and from Canadian Todd about whether adding glue AAAA records is a good idea. Then the collected luminaries throw a few “stump the chump”-style questions at Matt and Cricket – a little like shooting fish in a barrel. Tune in to see how well they fare.
Note that the audio isn’t quite up to even our low standards, despite the best efforts of Matt and Tom Daly of Dyn to smuggle decent recording equipment across state lines, but it’s certainly listenable.

After a respite carefully timed to avoid the Ides of March, Matt and Cricket answer Brian Mazzocco’s question about the meaning of strange, possibly European symbols in zone data files; address John Shin’s question about how validating, recursive name servers handle aliases from signed zones to unsigned zones; and assess Gavin Brown’s suggestion for automatically bootstrapping DS records from a signed child zone into its parent.

For the first time ever, Matt and Cricket have a guest host, Duane Wessels, recently of DNS-OARC and now at VeriSign. Matt, Duane and Cricket answer Christoph Kluenter’s question about IPv6-only name servers, Rick Andrews’s question about how software distinguishes IP addresses from domain names, and Rainer Duffner’s question about whether Google is omniscient or just sneaky. In addition, Matt demonstrates his formidable command of Stanley Kubrick’s “2001: A Space Odyssey,” and both Matt and Cricket gush about author Neal Stephenson and his latest novel, “Anathem.”
