Ok, this is going to bug me all day if I don't ask it now...
There was a really well known zone (root? .arpa? something)
that had something exactly like that at the end of the zone,
and I seem to remember it was not a TXT record (maybe an HINFO?).
Does anyone know what I'm on about? and what the label was? and
the zone / record?
One of those useless trivia things that's going to bug me all day..
Root zone
vrsn-end-of-zone-marker-dummy-record 172800 IN TXT "plenus"
Some people were really upset because this created the
"vrsn-end-of-zone-marker-dummy-record" TLD. It got removed when
Verisign revamped their provisioning system a couple of years ago.
