Re: ISP and NAT (question and some thoughts)

Yes, but...

The first step doing any increase difficult was done when the HOST_NAME->IP_ADDRESS translation was chosen instead of

HOST_NAME:SERVICE -> IP_ADDRESS:PORT

Now we have a lot of troubles due to this choose.

Of course if we could implement RFC2052 everywhere... I wonder if _any_ popular end user software has quietly added forward compatibility with SRV records? -Phil
