[nylug-talk] DNS servers

Thu Oct 18 09:00:06 EDT 2007

I am talking about going to Starbucks, and trying to access my tmobile account.  The DNS server crashes,  so the splash page doesn't even resolve.  I plug in the IP address by hand, to get to where the splash page should resolve to:  https://66.94.25.90/pages/accountLogon.jsp

haha  :)

I guess that is one way to prevent excess network trafic, don't let your customers log in!
It reminds me of that old Bevis and Buthead episode,  "Customers Suck", and Bevis and tells the customers,  "go away, we are closed or something"

4.2.2.2 for all your "I need a DNS ASAP!" needs with an easy to remember IP.

(apparently it used to reverse to dont.steal.dns.gte.com or something like 
that)
