DNS flag day 2019
-
The current DNS is unnecessarily slow and suffers from inability to deploy new features. To remediate these problems, vendors of DNS software and also big public DNS providers are going to remove certain workarounds on February 1st, 2019.
This change affects only sites which operate software which is not following published standards. Are you affected?
First I've heard about this. I've always thought that DNS was fast enough, but of course, it was designed 40 years ago. Is this really concern now?
-
Going to keep an eye on this thread to see where it goes and what info is posted.
Mine tested OK.
Interested!
-
None of my domains are affected.
-
My one through an error. I guess I'll see what happens to it next Friday.
-
All main sites tested fine. I got an error when trying to test subdomain sites. I am guessing the test doesn't do that.
-
Mine all seem good - but they are all on Cloudflare
-
Same here, on CloudFlare so no issues.

It clearly tells you that you need to use the TLD only.

Yeah, I saw that. Redirect has no bearing?

DNS doesn't normally exist at that level. The test would be at the SOA level.

Redirect does not, that happens after DNS resolution and independent of it.

Right and a subdomain by definition can never be a SoA
-
@JaredBusch correct

Ahh I see.

Mine looks good

@dbeato DNS is in the eye of the domain holder.
