RE: The Root has got an A record

2005-10-11 07:33:21
I am really confused as well. An organization calling itself
'public-root' that does not provide the breifest description of what it
is about, from their front page:
 
'This area is available for restricted users and only accessable through
limited IP numbers.'
 
For those of us who do not read nanog please prefix discussions about
wildcat roots as 'JOKE' or 'HOAX' so we don't waste time on them.

        I am confused. Why is this (ie, public-root.net operation) of
any concern to IETF?
        
        Even if this happens on "root-server.net", the appropriate forum
is to bring it to ICANN/IANA.

                Folks - got some bad news.  The Public-Root has aquired
an A record - yup
                thats right - an A record.  Which see below.  Have tried
to contact Paul
                Scheepers - our absent minded root operator - who now
hovers very close to 
                criminal conspiracy - to get him to fix this mistake.
Noone is at home at
                the inn.  Not good.  See appened message to Peter
Dambier and our
                public-root associates.
                
                I have no idea how a root will respond with an A record
in it.  Should be 
                interesting - but have no doubt a few things out in the
wild have been
                broken.
                
                regards
                joe

                Report this to NANOG and the IETF.  Make sure you send
them a copy of my
                response and the headers of this message.  I am holding
UNIDT personally
                responsible for this technical nightmare.
