They are NOT.
Horse == dead.


Also note the word PUBLIC in PUBLIC-ROOT.

My i18n must be broken.  All I see is SNAKE-OIL.

Hi,

Some of our customer complaint they could not visit
back to their web site, which use chinese domain name.
I google the net and found some one recommend to use
public-root.com servers in hint file.

I found domain name like xn--8pru44h.xn--55qx5d could
not be resolved either.

Our cache server runs BIND9.3.1 with root server list
from rs.internic.net.

Do I need to modify our cache server configuration to
enable it?

regards

Joe


Only if you wish to do all your other customers a disfavour
by configuring your caching servers to support a private
namespace then yes.

I would have thought the Site Finder experience would have
stopped people from thinking that they can arbitarially add
names to to the public DNS.
