12/22   God, I hate Networksolutions *SO* much!  DIE! DIE! DIE!
        \_ why are you still using them? Practically everyone else
           is cheaper and suck a lot less. Try gandi: http://www.gandi.net
           I'm a lot happier there. - ajani
           \_ Or even if you dont like dealing with a french company,
              http://register.com or any tucows registrar.  --jon
                \_ Gandi is brilliant--you should rather judge a registrar
                   based on their TOS and conflict resolution policy.  -John
                \_ I've used http://register.com before, and have been less than
                   impressed by their domain management interface. For
                   example, changing DNS servers is a bitch, and very
                   counter intuitive. As John said above, Gandi also has
                   a very nice TOS and generally seems clued. - ajani
           \_ I'm trying desperately to move my domains away from them but
              they won't let me.  I own the names from before there were any
              choices.  --desperately trying to get away from NS.

8/25    What's the best way to get a domain name that is about to expire?
        \_ It's called backordering.  It used to be fixed priced but now
           they're trying to auction them.  Still a good deal though.

7/9     is godaddy still the place for domain names? anything cheaper?
        \_ I use <DEAD>nearlyfreespeech.net<DEAD> since they're really awesome. It's worth
           paying for a decent registrar. Also, I use Sitelutions for the DNS for
           the domain, since it lets you have an enormous amount of control over
           your domain's DNS.
           \_ listen buddy, tab is EIGHT spaces not FOUR ok?

4/6     im considering making my Gmail account my default email for
        all my online banking stuff and domain registration and bill pay.
        Is there any anecdotal evidence of people getting their google
        account hacked?  After I do this change, Google will basically
        own me completely.

4/9     dig txt http://domain.com only returns one TXT record even though domain
        has more than one.  How do I see them all? tnx MOTD!
        \\_wow, I could not have picked a worse example.. "dig txt http://domain.com"
        actually DOES show more than one.  how come it doesn't work with
        mydomain.
        \_ Show us your zone file. You probably did something wrong.

12/9    Does anyone know of a good blogging software that can
        handle blogging entries as well as photo albums?
        Wordpress and the WP Gallery plugin is too tricky to
        configure easily. And please don't mention Facebook!
        \_ Why not just use Blogger and Flickr/Picasa or whatever?  -tom

11/3    Anyone point me to a solution for OSX  mac printing to a windows domain\
based computer that requires authorising. All the syntax that I have seen in var\
ious posts does not work (e.g. smb://username:password@machine/queue ). I was wo\
ndering if I should just accept it and wait until smbpool is fixed? Connecting\
via smbclient works just fine.

9/7     Dear Linux DNS experts, how do you find out if a domain has
        published SPF records? Is there a magic command like hostname,
        nslookup, etc that does this? I'm a UNIX noob. Thanks!
