The errors made in the case in question do not require that. I will, however, have work done on those ENUM resolvers we contribute to to have a blacklist mechanism for such "operators". All I want I demand that current best practice be obeyed on delegations, such that the following setup cannot happen: sil1:~# host -t ns 9.3.e164.arpa. 9.3.e164.arpa name server dns.istsupcti.it. 9.3.e164.arpa name server dns2.istsupcti.it. sil1:~# host dns.istsupcti.it. dns.istsupcti.it has address 62.101.92.173 sil1:~# host dns2.istsupcti.it. dns2.istsupcti.it has address 62.101.92.174 Do you note two adjacent IP adresses here? Janitor trips over wire, country gone - superb. And we are falling over here in political correctness, Get real, guys - dont tell me we cant do anything here, it's always been this way and we might be rocking some boat. We need to tell these guys to get a life, network diversity and some clue before having a delegation, and be done. You dont want the heat, you dont go into the kitchen. -Michael
