Interesting is an understatement. DNS is fascinating. I've got syslogd on my router set up to send everything to tty1, which I also disabled getty on, so I get to watch my syslog scroll by while I'm in the room. I've been doing it this way for most of this year, and I've watched DNS change in that time. For example: * I'm seeing far fewer errors logged complaining about EDNS. That's been nice. * I'm seeing fewer errors logged about bad AAAA lookups (FORMERR et al). Most sites which publish AAAA records seem to be doing it OK, although some CDNs, Google+ and Wikipedia *still* aren't doing it right. I've also switched from AT&T ADSL to Comcast in that time (though my IPv6 comes from 6to4 in both cases), so some of those changes may be an ISP-level issue. -- :wq
