My "(cheap) cable modem for general browsing" provider wouldn't even delegate RDNS; they'd only put PTRs in *their* servers. Swap BGP routes with them? Swell dream. This has become a common strategy: the cheap, fast, commodity service for the most-of-the-time that it's working and the most-of-the-stuff that it works for combined with the expensive and slow but reliable and full featured service for the mission critical apps. One of these isn't going to come with BGP and a PI prefix, and the technologies we deploy are going to have to deal with that. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William D.
