Hi Simon
This is the sort of thing I get in my DNS cache and is causing the problem.
$ORIGIN AMPR.ORG.
lx IN A 44.161.0.0
soxon-hub-uk IN CNAME g6lnu.AMPR.ORG.
9a1bhi IN A 44.170.20.10
$ORIGIN mu.AMPR.ORG.
net IN A 44.136.10.0
gw IN A 44.136.10.1
IN MX 0 gw.mu.AMPR.ORG.
IN MX 20 marconi.mpce.mq.edu.au.
$ORIGIN nm.AMPR.ORG.
abqgate IN A 44.30.0.50
IN MX 10 mack.rt66.com.
IN MX 20 chili.rt66.com.
$ORIGIN AMPR.ORG.
dl4zbb IN A 44.130.52.50
$ORIGIN itcj.mx.AMPR.ORG.
router IN A 204.157.234.10
liebre IN A 204.157.234.2
gate IN A 204.157.234.25
dsc IN A 204.157.234.3
$ORIGIN AMPR.ORG.
The redefining of the origin all the time makes it difficult to find a flat
bit of
address space. Can't help thinking there should be a few more rules applied
in the allocation of names in ampr.org - in the sub-domain 'gw' for example
there is
vk4vh IN A 44.136.147.16
lu1ma IN A 200.9.147.40
vk4cjs IN A 44.136.138.69
lu9mab IN A 200.9.147.184
IN A 200.9.154.184
vk4bw IN A 44.136.147.27
Boy does it show up when viewed like this...
Anyway - thats not really the current problem...
