root.cache Update

Posted in AtWork, Sysadmin by Rami on the March 15th, 2006

Update root.cache or named.ca files for DNS servers using the following command:

dig @a.root-servers.net. . ns

UPDATE: a better command:

dig +bufsize=1200 +norec NS . @a.root-servers.net > /var/named/named.root [Link]

    Hi,

    This is off-topic but I’m working on a research project about the Kuwait blogs and was wondering if you wouldn’t mind taking my survey? Full details are below:

    My name is Noor Ali-Hasan and I am a graduate student at the University of Michigan School of Information. As part of my master’s thesis project, I am currently conducting a study about bloggers and their social networks. Based on your blog, you have been selected to participate in a short online survey about blogging. To qualify for the survey, you must meet the following qualifications:

    * Be at least 18 years of age
    * Currently keep a blog
    * Have a blog that contains a blogroll and/or allows comments
    * Have a blog that is part of the Kuwait Blogs community

    Your participation is completely voluntary. The survey should take about ten to thirty minutes to complete. You may access the survey at this address:

    http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?A=120826072E1053

    All survey data will be kept confidential. The study’s findings will be reported in aggregates and will not be used to identify a specific person. If you have any questions about this survey, please email me at nooraz@umich.edu.

    Your time and participation is greatly appreciated!

    Thank you!
