Looking for Secondary DNS hosting.

JBrown

Any suggestions on 2ndary DNS hosting companies ? So far i have tried GoDaddy, just wasted 2 weeks of my and GoDaddy Support time, and still could not get it working. Looked into DNSMadeEasy, but their plans kinda suck, their best (corporate) 2ndary DNS hosting cost $1500 an year, and 2nd best (business) $59/year, only. There is a huge gap in between.

Who do you guys and girls use to host your 2ndaries ?

In house .... External DNS hosted in two different physical locations (well internal too obviously).

How far apart from each other are your sites ?
That is what we had, until Ms. Hurricane Sandy decided to visit New York City. Our Primary and number of secondary sites were without power for about 1 week, that is where all of our infrastructure is.

Hi,

Do you need your hosting provider to be able to support any specific features? How many domains would you be looking to host?

I've been using Hurricane Electric for secondary hosting for a couple of years now and no problems. Best of all - it's free.

They have 5 nameservers (ns{1-5}.he.net) located in the USA and Europe.

Edit: Have a read of the Terms of Service as I use it on a personal basis so best to check for business.

I will check them out, I would not expect NetSol to hold secondaries for anybody else, at least not for $$$.
