Scott Given the (general) support of WikiLeaks here, I was wondering if anyone could Scott recommend a free alternative to replace EveryDNS.net? 1) Get a free tunnelbroker.net account from Hurricane Electric by signing up. 2) secondary up to 25 domains using that account, for free, on DNS servers that are geographically diverse and ipv6 enabled. 3) if you're feeling lucky, use two of your five free tunnels to have an endpoint in the USA (to see streaming media available only in the USA) and the UK (to use BBC iplayer). Of course, the tunnels are meant for you to have ipv6 anywhere. I just consider that a bonus. :) -- Randal L.

I'm also unaware of their stance on wikileaks. Level 3 4.2.2.1 4.2.2.2 OpenDNS (if you can cope with their non-standard way of dealing with DNS misses, etc.) 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220

Sure, should get some sleep before reading, posting and mistaking requests about secondary DNS services with requests about resolvers... Unfortunately wikileaks exposure causes insomnia. ciao Luca

Re: OT - secondary DNS recommendations
To the folks that replied on- and off-list with their _recommendations_ from personal experience, thank-you very much! That's exactly what I was looking for. I'm doing my due diligence and will investigate them all. For the folks that replied with alternatives but no actual recommendation, thanks anyway. :) At least you tried. Regards, - Scott
