Well, I haven't had any occasion to use such a service; our secondary service
is provided by our network service provider. For general online information
about DNS, you could start at http://www.dns.net/dnsrd, which includes an FAQ,
other documents, and various links to other resources. There's a link from
there to the free GraniteCanyon secondary service, labelled "The Public
DNS Service", however, some questions have been raised about GraniteCanyon's
stability. You might want to look further.
