[dns-operations] A lot of CNAME queries for domain ?

[Mohamed Lrhazi]

Just to be sure.. I mean to ask about CNAME queries to my domain itself,
not names underneath.

Looking at logs of one of our three DNS servers... at 15 minute sample....
20% of the queries are of type CNAME, 99.9% of those are for our domain
name...

Weird, right?

Thanks a lot,
Mohamed.
