Hi, Due to a recent fiber cut in northern california, I've stepped up my plan to have one authoritative dns and backup mail exchanger located on another network far, far away. I am sadly having immense trouble with dotster understanding that I need to update the ip address of a glue record, as I host my own stuff, for which their gui has no abillity and which phone support says open a ticket for which the e-mailed response was utter cluelessness, claiming they checked and it's already set... yeah, you recursed and hit my existing ns which gave you the answer, but it's the roots which need to know.... <sigh> Honestly the last time I mucked with this low level of a function I was actually emailing unenceypted spoofed 'mail from' secured templates to internic. I find the modern registrars to be a huge improvement, but in this regard I am confounded. I needed this done 24 hours ago. Anyone out there can tell me how to get this done? Mike-
