How about 65?

$EX_WORK has 9 internet connections, with two DNS relays per connection.
Then a minimum of two internal nameservers per site.  Some had four (two 
HA clusters)...  hmm... the wonderfull world of 24hr factories...

DNS can very easily not work.  You just need every site managing their 
own, while not listening to the "One Who Knows DNS" TM.

You should see the horrible mess some zone files are.
