Hi Dean.. as per my other post .... IS 45mbit outage ... seems to have nailed Sentech .. again ...

I truly wish they'd add some local dns peers to all of this...

**** if IS has a 45 meg circut out the have been reduced to 3/4 of there bandwidth.

I wonder I this problem is going to get sorted doon, with the international.

Sentech needs to put a 64k line into me for DNS resolution lol !

dean dont laugh i had a DNS backup plan that involved a MWEB dialup and nating/redirects to UUNET's servers in times of crisis 64kbs ISDN is fine for DNS ...

i chose UUNET as we were peered to SIAX/JINX and UUNET made a good alternative as it was non peered ...

it is quite easy to make a plan if you know what you doing ...
