Can dns send back a default ip address upon error

[Julien Matthieu]

i suggest to have secondary dns handled by hosting...
before we use to have secondary.com witch was free
but it has been bought by ultradns .... so it isb't free anymore....
you can go and check their new web site for info... www.secondarydns.com

have fun
