[ZWeb] Re: [Zope-dev] svn.zope.org down?

[Wichert Akkerman]

I did a bit of checking: zope.org has a crazy number of DNS servers
and they are not all in sync. Particularly
seconly.rackspace.com (69.20.0.180) and cabana.palladion.com
(64.34.177.88) are not authorative for the zope.org domain and will just
refer back to the root servers.

This shows some obvious DNS problems:

[levante;~]-26> for i in 216.122.7.155 8.7.96.28 69.20.0.180
64.34.177.88 63.240.213.250 70.168.181.3 70.84.6.50 207.234.248.200 ; do
dig zope.org soa @$i ; done | grep SOA | grep -v '^;'
zope.org.               7200    IN      SOA     ns1.zoneedit.com.  soacontact.zoneedit.com. 1159817268 14400 7200 950400 7200
zope.org.               7200    IN      SOA     ns1.zoneedit.com.  soacontact.zoneedit.com. 1159817265 14400 7200 950400 7200
zope.org.               300     IN      SOA     ns2.zope.com.  postmaster.zope.com. 2006092901 300 300 300 150
zope.org.               300     IN      SOA     ns2.zope.com.  postmaster.zope.com. 2006092901 300 300 300 150
zope.org.               7200    IN      SOA     ns1.zoneedit.com.  soacontact.zoneedit.com. 1159817261 14400 7200 950400 7200
zope.org.               7200    IN      SOA     ns1.zoneedit.com.  soacontact.zoneedit.com. 1159817268 14400 7200 950400 7200

note how those answers differ wildly: there are four different versions
of the zope.org domain going around. This will not clear up
automatically: the domain registration, nameserver configuration and
zone files seem to be need some updating.
