I am not the Admin for my connection. I have a hole through the wall into another
company that takes care of the DNS stuff. I am just allocated a couple of IP
numbers and tell them what name on what hosts...
Your reply is VERY instructive, and I will be talking to the NetAdmin in there,
and I am sure he is grateful to this analysis as well.
(Mimos and Jaring is the same thing, more or less. Mimos is the company that runs
the Jaring ISP service.)
