Re: Register.com DNS outages

Yes, however register.com does not allow their customers to list both their DNS servers and a customer's DNS server. End result is when the outage on their servers occurs you need to modify the config on their website so that it points back to your private DNS servers. Propagation delays are a pain....

You can outsource your DNS, but you better retain a server locally on
your network, so that you suffer less from that particular shared
toothbrush.
