Free DNS services

[masterbo]

Could someone suggest what free DNS hosting service to use? So far I have had experience with the following services:

Xname.org - fine, admin-wise kind of DNS zone management. Con: it is relatively often offline (DoS/whatever0

EditDns.net - fine, but it has several times rolled abck their DB state, wiping out my records. I can't name that a rliable service.

EveryDns.net - fine, quick, easy to manage. Con: I have tried to donate, to have limits removed, but my donation was never recorded, all the attempts to contact the administration failed, as well.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

No, I mean like those I mentioned - places to host one's DNS zones. Very useful in many cases, e.g. if TLD registrar requires several DNS servers in different C-type networks (.ru, .de etc).

The ones I mentioned - reliable, paid, if necessary, but worth the payment.

Thanks.

Agreed!

First off, you get yourself either a VPS or Dedicated Server, set up the DNS software, and then program a PHP script to execute DNS changes. Then you can go from there.
And also, you must NOT attempt to hijack a thread from FWS.
