DNS configuration problem

[Joseph S D Yao]

> What do you think about this?

Your earlier insight still holds.  If it's a name server, it has to
know the whole domain.

"No problem."  Get ampr.org to allow you to be a slave [secondary] for
the whole domain.  That way, when you're in touch, you can download the
whole domain.  And when you're not ... you're not.  You're still an
authoritative name server, whether master or slave.

The situation with packet radio hasn't changed much since its early
days, I guess.  What has changed is this peculiar feeling people seem
to have that land-based connections are reliable.  They didn't used to
be.  But they are much more so, now.

You and Brian Kantor may have to play around with the various timing
factors to get it to work right.
