8/9 Does the CSUA and/or the UCB nameservers cache results for
far longer than the average nameserver?
\_ To try to diffuse this, AFAIK the ucb nameservers use isc bind,
and are RFC compliant. They cache results according to the SOA
of the domain in question.
\_ dig
\_ I asked a "yes" or "no" question. Do you know the answer?
\_ The correct answer is 'dig'. Yes, I do know. I used dig.
\_ Wow, you are a delight. Why do you go out of your way
to be unhelpful? You assume that somebody asking about
name server cache does not know about the existance of
dig? Why not use your time to be helful?
\_ Because running dig to actually check the answer would
have been less typing than asking on the motd.
\_ again you assume incorrectly. I did run dig.
\_ In that case, could you please post what you
found, like "dig http://foo.com from soda shows a TTL
of three days, but dig http://foo.com @bar.com shows
only a half-hour; why are they different?"
\_ man dig
\_ Uh, of course I already did that. I'll buy a bind
book cause your answers aren't. By the way, your
"answers" still doesn't answer the original
question, which requires experience and knowledge
of the "average" nameserver. reading a man page
would not help with that.
\_ your question doesn't say you don't have
knowledge about the "average" nameserver.
you should ask something like "how long
does the average name server cache
results, and does soda cache longer that
that?" if you don't know how to pose
a question, stop bitching when people
didn't give the answer you wanted. |
