My domain name with them also failed to resolve today ... Maybe their
server is down for now. Actually, my domain has never been resolved by
their ns1 server. But today, their ns2 is down too ...
It seems that their service is not reliable at all. I have been using
www.myinternet.com for my other domain names. It offers (almost) full DNS
capability. It is free for now. But they said they gonna charge $39 per
year sometime in the future. Pretty expensive.
Anyone has more thoughts?
