Greetings all,


Anyone have an SBCIS (AS7132) contact with DNS clue?  I'm being
told it's "company policy" that they list their nameservers as
authoritative for reverse DNS on space assigned from their
netblocks.  IOW, they "delegate" by creating NS RRs that point to
the correct NSes _and_ NS RRs pointing to their own.

It gets better.  Like all good "authoritative" NSes, their NSes
disallow recursive processing.  Is it truly company policy to
screw up reverse DNS for downstreams who run their own?

Wanted: AS7132 contact who understands the concept of lame
servers, why they are bad, and is willing and able to help do
something about it.
