Hello, Adding to Bill's list of things to check on your DNS servers, please consider implementing RFC 1876 - `A Means for Expressing Location Information in the Domain Name System.' RFC 1876 defines the format of a DNS Resource Record (RR) for associating host location mappings to host names within a domain. In other words, you can put longitude, latitude, and altitude in the RR record, have a tool query it, and be able to plot the geographic location of the DNS site! See the following URLs for details: http://www.kei.com/homepages/ckd/dns-loc/ http://www.caida.org/Tools/iptll.html Consider RFC 1876, even if it's just a rough guess based on a wall map of your country.
