And what if NetSol is your registrar that needs to add the glue!?
Indeed, welcome to the 72 hour+++ phone loop with clueless folks who=20
don't understand what you are talking about.
Apparently, around 2003 somewhere there was clueful and when you mailed=20
dnssupport@networksolutions.com they could add the relevant entries=20
manually. Last couple of times I tried that though, the person who=20
answered clearly didn't understand the concept of glue, let alone AAAA's =
or what IPv6 or even IP remotely was...
As the roots will have AAAA glue starting next month, but for .org it is =
apparently impossible to get it added though, I am not going to spend=20
time to get through to them though. We can only pray that they finally=20
start getting a clue somehow and add it to their webinterface so that we =
don't have to go through it manually.
The real solution seems to be: swapping to Enom.
Greets,
Jeroen
