CNAME and Other Data (olympusgroove.com)

[Don Lehman]

Hi All,

I just noticed that "olympusgroove.com" is returning a CNAME to 
"wip.olympusgroove.com".  The RFCs say this isn't allowed (since they 
need an NS record and SOA record for the zone). and I've always advised 
others that this will not work. Well, they are doing it and it seems to 
be working? Are there things that are not working? How do I continue to 
recommend against this?

TIA,

Don Lehman
