> The stub config is interesting, though. Will be interesting to see if it even works. If they are just stubs for the fakeTLD.newdotnet.net., then all client requests will have to be properly formatted on send, meaning that it will only work if the plugin is used. Stuff like ping won't work. Nasty. If they are supporting an alias function (assuming ISPs are able to control the DNS settings on their users systems), then the ISP partners' DNS servers will have to run fake roots in order catch the requests for fake.zone. If they do that, are they going to answer with fake.zone. RRsets? or are they going to DNAME/CNAME everything? Neither mechanisms are pretty, both are required, it'll never last. -- Eric A.
