Folks,

One to watch out for for the network geeks:

Warning: Why your Internet might fail on May 5

http://www.itnews.com.au/News/173412,warning-why-your-internet-might-fail-on-may-5.aspx

That's where all the root DNS servers all henceforth will serve only
DNSSEC responses.


If you're a home user, then you shouldn't notice any change.

If instead you strangely can't get onto the internet after 5th May,
that's something to check that your helpline/helpdesk know about!


Good luck,
Martin
