I could switch to linode (happy customer for almost a year now), or go back to running my own DNS server. On the original topic - I used to host my own DNS with djbdns. It worked pretty well, but I didn't have a backup provider, and when you added up the downtime from the DSL line and my server at home, it was nowhere near 5 9's. I'd go back to it if needed since I now host at linode with better pipe/server uptime. j
