A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Domain Name Server Operations Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Distributing Root Name Servers via Shared Unicast
Addresses
Author(s) : E. Hardie
Filename : draft-ietf-dnsop-shared-root-server-00.txt
Pages :
Date : 18-Jun-99
This memo describes a set of practices designed to enable the
distribution of a root DNS server to multiple geographically and
topologically distinct network locations. These practices presume
that a single entity remains administratively and operationally
responsible for each of the distributed servers.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
