I'm tempted to try making one of the authoritative name servers for a toy domain www.<domain> to see what happens. Anyone tried it?
$ dnsqr ns abuse.net 2 abuse.net: 78 bytes, 1+2+0+0 records, response, noerror query: 2 abuse.net answer: abuse.net 251793 NS light.lightlink.com answer: abuse.net 251793 NS www.abuse.net
I imagine this would result in slightly faster lookups, though the high TTL and propagation make it risky, and not appropriate for high availability sites.
Hasn't made much difference that I can see. I did it to avoid burning another IP address from my /24. R's, John
