Re: [44net] Reverse DNS and access to DNS info

I am not sure what you mean by feared, but no, my allocations are not supporting the AMPRnet per se. If by AMPRnet you mean the legacy BBS style network of gateways and tunnels. I am issuing OpenVPN certs to provide public IP addresses to IRLP voice repeaters, where public IPs are troublesome to get, such as where cellular access to the Internet with private IP is the only thing available. Parts of the IRLP infrastructure are in 44-land, including server4.irlp.net in Sydney or server3.irlp.net in Chicago. It is absolutely 100% Ham Radio. But I wouldn’t call it AMPRnet in the legacy or traditional sense. I have had these allocations for over 5 years (Australia less than that). I am definitely not interested in opening my nameservers up to anyone I do not know (so mainly only my other nameservers). You can use dig -x like everyone else. I signed the license agreement like everyone else that has a /24 or larger allocation, and I stand by all the promises made there in. -- Dave Gingrich, K9DC Indianapolis, Indiana USA
