    DNS Report DNS Report for panix.comGenerated by www.DNSreport.com at 13:18:18 GMT on 16 Jan 2005. status = "Getting data from root..."; CategoryStatusTest NameInformation Parent PASSMissing Direct Parent checkOK. Your direct parent zone exists, which is good. Some domains (usually third or fourth level domains, such as example.co.us) do not have a direct parent zone ('co.us' in this example), which is legal but can cause confusion. INFONS records at parent serversYour NS records at the parent servers are:
    ns1.ukdnsservers.co.uk. [142.46.200.67 (NO GLUE)] [CA] ns2.ukdnsservers.co.uk. [207.61.90.196 (NO GLUE)] [CA] [These were obtained from f.gtld-servers.net] PASSParent nameservers have your nameservers listedOK. When someone uses DNS to look up your domain, the first step (if it doesn't already know about your domain) is to go to the parent servers. If you aren't listed there, you can't be found. But you are listed there WARNGlue at parent nameserversWARNING. The parent servers (I checked with f.gtld-servers.net.) are not providing glue for all your nameservers. This means that they are supplying the NS records (host.example.com), but not supplying the A records (192.0.2.53), which can cause slightly slower connections, and may cause incompatibilities with some non-RFC-compliant programs. This is perfectly acceptable behavior per the RFCs. This will usually occur if your DNS servers are not in the same TLD as your domain (for example, a DNS server of "ns1.example.org" for the domain "example.com"). In this case, you can speed up the connections slightly by having NS records that are in the same TLD as your domain. status = "Waiting for NS results from your nameservers..."; NS INFONS records at your nameserversYour NS records at your nameservers are:
    ns1.ukdnsservers.co.uk. [TTL=86400] ns2.ukdnsservers.co.uk. [TTL=86400] PASSAll nameservers report identical NS recordsOK. The NS records at all your nameservers are identical. PASSAll nameservers respondOK. All of your nameservers listed at the parent nameservers responded. PASSNameserver name validityOK. All of the NS records that your nameservers report seem valid (no IPs or partial domain names). PASSNumber of nameserversOK. You have 2 nameservers. You must have at least 2 nameservers (RFC2182 section 5 recommends at least 3 nameservers), and preferably no more than 7. PASSLame nameserversOK. All the nameservers listed at the parent servers answer authoritatively for your domain. PASSMissing (stealth) nameserversOK. All 2 of your nameservers (as reported by your nameservers) are also listed at the parent servers. PASSMissing nameservers 2OK. All of the nameservers listed at the parent nameservers are also listed as NS records at your nameservers. PASSNo CNAMEs for domainOK. There are no CNAMEs for panix.com. RFC1912 2.4 and RFC2181 10.3 state that there should be no CNAMEs if an NS (or any other) record is present. Note that I only checked panix.com, I did not check the NS records, which should not have CNAMEs either. PASSNo NSs with CNAMEsOK. There are no CNAMEs for your NS records. RFC1912 2.4 and RFC2181 10.3 state that there should be no CNAMEs if an NS (or any other) record is present. WARNNameservers on separate class C'sWARNING: We cannot test to see if your nameservers are all on the same Class C (technically, /24) range, because the root servers are not sending glue. We plan to add such a test later, but today you will have to manually check to make sure that they are on separate Class C ranges. Your nameservers should be at geographically dispersed locations. You should not have all of your nameservers at the same location. RFC2182 3.1 goes into more detail about secondary nameserver location. PASSAll NS IPs publicOK. All of your NS records appear to use public IPs. If there were any private IPs, they would not be reachable, causing

  10. Oh Joy ! Intel release object CPU. on The Next Path for Joy · · Score: -1, Troll

    Engage brain before selecting mouth ... either that or Joy has an inside run on the release date of Intel's object processor. Yes thats right .. last time I checked the current CPUs on the market they were all still using procedural instructions ( with lots of goto's .. AKA jump instructions ). C is just a step up on using assembler. Object languages are just plain lazy and or obfuscated. Real programmers use whatever it takes to achieve outcome. Object programmers just dont understand pointers AKA program counters. When you check into hospital for the heart bypass operation you will REALLY want that life support system to be written in object code ...not! Gimme the C code iron lung.
