The arguments at the link I posted are still relevant today. If you aren't replicating your other servers in different geographic locations, there isn't much benefit to replicating your DNS servers in different geographic locations. If you are running your own server on your DSL connection, having someone else acting as a backup dns server doesn't provide you with much benefit and there are downsides you need to balance against that. It is reasonable to ask whether you really want to be running a mail or web server on your DSL connection, but if you do go that way, getting someone else to run secondary DNS server for you is going to be a waste of effort unless the registrar you deal with forces you to do it. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
