ns1.register.com. 600 IN A 216.21.234.96
ns2.register.com. 600 IN A 216.21.226.96
ns3.register.com. 600 IN A 216.21.234.97
ns4.register.com. 600 IN A 216.21.226.97
This is two pairs, each pair in a single /24 (or /26), and there are
ways in which each of these hosts could be in a widely different spot
from the other three, or in several different spots.
Why am I saying this? Most of the folks here know this and how to do
this even better than I do.
I am not saying that register.com IS doing this, just that you can't say
that they're NOT just from this evidence.
And by now it's moot anyway.
