We don't do that any longer on our main geo-load balanced ns and ns2 nameservers. We do have a "sec-only" name server that we will slave off a customer's master. But a) it's not tied in with myrackspace/DNS tool (big deal).. and b) it is HA, but it's not geo-HA.

Well I can't help you on the people side... zero to n individuals are always going to be responsible... But yes.. we can hook you guys up with our sec-only name service. Here's a KB article on the topic: Can Rackspace provide secondary DNS and let me control my own master server? https://my.rackspace.com/direct?view_kb_doc&ref_no=050803-0001&submit=view_article (requires a valid MyRS login) As the KB article states... our seconly DNS service - is legacy only offering.. but we do make acceptions. :) What account is this on?

Dotster's wins for ease of use so far... Not personally, but I will take the hit. ;) Actually, the UI that I worked on was AJAX before AJAX had a name, and was primarily directed toward employees. The tools were all written when the company was very young, and, eh, yeh, they have not been rewritten. Let's simply say that I felt rather strongly that we should have moved to Zope, and we didn't, so I don't work on that PHP anymore.

You can always set up "rogue" secondaries that purport to serve zope.org, which then would have to be allowed to manually pull zone data, but what would be the point of that..? Okay, that's not what I'm suggesting. Whether you run it by hand or not, with BIND, you would use named-xfer, which executes an AXFR request. So, if the master has to know about the slaves to *tell* them to grab the zone, then it knows about them to *allow* an AXFR, no? Why are we arguing this? It's pretty clear at this point that ZoneEdit can handle this need. I wasn't familiar with it off-hand. What I *do* know is that I can't pull an AXFR query of google.com and get the entire Zone, not from my local machine, which is not an approved DNS slave. > It's a sad logical fallacy for you to state that because you have > never seen this problem, it does not exist.

Sorry, I don't buy your argument. First of all, big companies like Rackspace will always be an attractive target. We're talking about one piddling open source project here.

On the other side of the coin, btw, if ZoneEdit is small fries in comparison to Rackspace, maybe that's a good reason not to rely on them as the only nameservers for zope.org. If their provider goes out for a few hours, we want zope.org to be available to the world. I think you are exagerrating the extent to which my suggestion makes this complicated.

I have no idea what you are talking about. This is not some huge DNS service that we need. We need to serve exactly one zone. This can be done from a Palm Pilot, to be honest. I have run DNS services for years and years and don't share any of your doubts. Okay, let's please not make this an argument. *we* do not have large-scale DNS needs. However, if we use someone like ZoneEdit.com, their nameservers are highly loaded.

We can use someone like zoneedit.com for the primary, and then have a bunch of secondaries.I'm sure there's lots of us who could do secondary dns for this.

It isn't that we can't run a BIND or djbdns server, we are responsible for over fifty machines, but yanno, it's just easier. A provider who focuses on DNS can make sure there is uber redundancy, and can, as mentioned, keep a single point of failure from affecting the zone's future edit-ability.

First, thank you for volunteering! Right, it's indeed not a requirement, the namespace URL is just a way to get uniqueness, but it'd indeed be nice if something lived there. What I would propose if you write the documents you want to sit on the other end for the various ZCML namespaces, and put them up somewhere for us to review. Once we're happy with them, we'll work on putting them online. Right on. This will probably take some time, and, eh, anyone else who wants to help is more than welcome. Perhaps we should follow whatever process is set out for managing ZF content as ReST. Is there a place where Zope3 documentation is auto-generated via pydoc?

Andrew I could slave as well. I believe a single DNS query over UDP can handle around 20-25 entries, depending on their size. Should be no problem for an 'NS' query for zope.org to point at ten or more hosts which run slave. The question is, does this tool allow that? I imagine so.

Do you think there would be any problem in propagating updates? Well, there won't. And I don't see any need for more than 3 DNS servers (including the master). DNS is not resource-intensive in any way. Well, since I don't know about the suggested provider, here's my concern - let's say I manage your DNS on my servers, and you want to provide your own local servers. How do you get a copy of the latest zone? Your IP must be listed in my server so that it is allowd to perform AXFR queries. All I'm saying is, I assume, hopefully, that this provider will allow us to specify hosts which are allowed to perform AXFR. They will also probably provide us with 3-4 hosts which we can use for DNS. If You, me, and one other person each contribute two IP addresses on different network, that puts the zope.org zone in pretty good shape, because various caching nameservers will handle the trouble of determining which authoritative record is best for them to use. DNS may seem like a low-load service, but if you were to run a DNS provider yourself on a single machine, I challenge you to maintain 90% uptime. The last time I worked on a large DNS implementation we had twelve machines in each of two geographic locations - dual xeon machines with lots of RAM that did nothing but handle round-robin DNS queries. IIRC, we had about 100,000 zones, but still, let's think about this for a moment. Imagine: * I have www.stupidwebsiteforjerks.com * Someone hates my stupid website, because it's for jerks * My DNS records are in the same server as yours * Someone decides to launch an 8MB/s or so DDoS against my NS records and my webserver IP. * Your site starts failing to load for 30-60% of visitors after a few hours. ;) -- Justizin, Independent Interactivity Architect ACM SIGGRAPH SysMgr, Reporter http://www.siggraph.org/ ___ Zope-web maillist - Zope-web@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-web

As do I . All this DNS volunteering is great! Unfortunately, I'm a bit at a loss on how to proceed, as I'm not very familiar with DNS issues. The way it works is this: - - the owner/admin for the domain changes the domain name servers assigned for this domain through the registrar that holds the domain. This can normally be done using a web interface at the registrar. Someone at ZC must do this, and he needs a IP/hostname for the primary DNS server and IPs/hostnames for secondaries - - The zone data is pulled from the old servers and entered into the new primary. This zone data must reflect the new DNS primary/ secondaries. Whenever the primary is updated, it will contact all the secondaries it knows about automatically and ask them to reload the data. - - The secondaries need to have their configuration changed so that they know they are secondaries for zope.org. They also need to know the IP of the primary. They will then automatically fetch zone data from the primary. Apart from the first step this is quick and easy to do. jens -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (Darwin) iD8DBQFFGUs7RAx5nvEhZLIRAqnXAJ9DEh9Xwu0lOWz1bnN7wZsfa3YnrACgs7mQ ShgewVqAuoT7G+RE+JFy+UY= =ECBK -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Zope-web maillist - Zope-web@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-web
