In this episode, for the first time ever, Matt and Cricket are joined by a dozen DNS dignitaries to answer a question from Alejandro Acosta about when to plug trust anchors into his name servers’ configurations and begin validating, and Bob Lee’s question about which tools to use to check his zone data and his name server’s configuration. Then they discuss DENIC’s recent Worst Day Ever after they published a truncated zone data file for .DE. And Mr. DNS is amazed to learn how many dynamic zone hosting services are blocked from China.
Mr. DNS sends special thanks to Dyn Inc. for their support of this Ask Mr. DNS episode. Dyn provided the venue, the equipment and their famous New England hospitality. Thanks also to all of the panelists for their good humor and participation.

In this episode, Matt and Cricket reminisce about G jobs and the Good Old Days at pre-Carly HP, and answer Noe Nevarez’s question about apparent timeouts in nslookup and Alan Shackelford’s question about the effect of signing a parent zone on its subzones. Then Matt plugs DNS-OARC in an act of contrition and proceeds to throw Cisco under the bus for offering an option in CNR that’s less than infrastructure-friendly. And finally – and somewhat predictably – the conversation veers off into movies featuring people who can’t form long-term memories (though, incredibly, they forget Dory in “Finding Nemo”!) and upcoming business travel.

They also answer Shane Wegner’s question about minimal responses, Matt brings Cricket up to date on progress in the effort to sign the root zone (including a reference to slides by Duane Wessels from NANOG 48), and Matt describes a recent “brush with greatness.”
