I dunno about web references (isc.org?) but for what it's worth the
ORA DNS+BIND book (you'll want the 3rd ed) has a pretty good
explanation of how the DNS system works. If the usual transatlantic
conversion rates operate, it's probably about 25 USD, so give it a look
- the equivalent of a frugal night out _and_ good bedtime reading too.
