It's DNS servers, not resolvers, that need to update their lists of Internet root servers. The problem (IMHO) is that few sites know or care that they have to maintain root server list periodically to stay in sync with the rest of the Internet. One way to attack the problem (not solve it) is to require nameserver vendors (IIS, Apple, BIND, etc.) to provide the capability for periodic root server list updates.

I hate to say it, but the ftp script you list to do this is insecure. If I knew for a fact taht you were doing this regularly, you would be meat on the table. Perry
