Unrelated to the DNS bit, but still silly / annoying: http://www.sss.gov works OK, but http://sss.gov always seems to return "The requested service is temporarily unavailable. It is either overloaded or under maintenance. Please try later.".
There is a fair bit os disagreement over if a bare domain should resolve / have a web-server listening, but ISTM that if you *do*, you should have it work -- I wonder how many people have tried the bare domain and never realized that adding in the 'www' "fixes" it.

This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair of pants. ---maf _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
