Anyone catch up on Verisign's latest tricks? It has created a real headache
for any DNS admin. They no longer round robin through the authoritative
records. What that means is that your primary DNS servers are getting pounded
(check the size of your logs and the load on your DNS primaries!). All those
cache poising attempts filling up your logs? I'm surprised this hasn't hit the
press yet. I can't imagine too many folks interested in DNS are happy about
this.

My poor primary systems are buckling. :(
