For many, many years, I've used Granite Canyon (not going to provide a link, it's not important, you can Google if you really care) for the secondary DNS on all my/our/client domains. Some time ago, I noticed that they were pretty mucked up, and I couldn't access any of my DNS information. I thought, at the time, that it was a temporary problem. Tonight, I found that it was still mucked up, and I couldn't make any changes, nor could I add any new domains (not that I have any new domains to add, but I was kind of thinking about registering something new, which is what made me go around and check it out).
So I had to find a new secondary DNS provider. Now, we have plenty of geeky acquaintances who could provide this service, but that's a bit of a hassle, because they have to do it on their server, rather than us doing it, so you end up being a pest if you make changes (not good). I had a look around for a while and eventually settled on another free DNS provider, who have proved to be quite easy to use and with a really good web interface.
I'll give a link in case any geeks ever read this and want to know where they can get free primary or secondary DNS. We went with EveryDNS.net.
Non-geeks, feel free to disregard this blog entry.
