Hi All,

I just noticed that "olympusgroove.com" is returning a CNAME to
"wip.olympusgroove.com".  The RFCs say this isn't allowed (since they
need an NS record and SOA record for the zone). and I've always advised
others that this will not work. Well, they are doing it and it seems to
be working? Are there things that are not working? How do I continue to
recommend against this?

TIA,

Don Lehman
