I read all the discussion you led on the last Sunday about my proposition and I want to say everyone who participated in it thank you. Now, I want to answer the Jordan K. Hubbard's last message which is at the top of my replay and which is (as I know) was the last on the subject. Before starting writing this DNS server and posting my idea to the net, I've read all the material I had about the DNS service includ- ing various RFCs and internet draft and much more. I know about the Paul Vixie's work, but it is exactly what I called Rocket motor for a bike. You see, he does exactly what I want to do, but using textfile database, which doesn't improve performance and doesn't allow using TTL's too (as someone noticed about my idea) -- Regards, Denis -- +----------------------------------------------------------------+ | Denis Kopylenko, Tel Aviv, Israel.
