Obviously, prometheus.gwu.edu MAY not be a CNAME, because it must be on
the left-hand side of other records. The others, your choice.
Remember that a "tag" on the LHS of a CNAME record may not be on the
LHS of any other record.
I thought Sweth or Sheryl were still somewhere where they could help
you with little DNS questions?
