Re: Will reverting DNS wildcard have any adverse affects?

I have confidence in the bind patch not breaking bind when Verisign reverts back, but there were some pretty rash suggestions when the sitefinder service first came online. (Paul, bind won't break when this goes back to normal will it?)

ask yourself how many DNS admins are going to go pull out the "-delegation" stanzas from their configs? Or that will use them to lie about other delegations that use wildcards as long as that code is still available? ... someone should write up a FAQ now, describing how to troubleshoot DNS anomolies that will arise as a result of this code being in the wild. IMHO, its going to be a -long- time before this "feature" is eradicated from the deployed base. :(
