Is there a possibility of FRED not enforcing at least two nameservers?.
We are considering several other alternatives for implementing this best
practice. though.
Bad idea.
If nothing else - offer a "Secondary DNS Service" to those that need it.
At my ISP, I have developed a "Secondary DNS System", Linux, Apache,
Mysql, Php based. Users have their own logins and can define their
"Primary/Master" Nameservers - then simply add domains. Because the
Primary is pre-defined - I optionally allow for T-SIG transactions
(Secure zone transfer). Its also IPv6 enabled. It functions in two parts
- one to do all the web stuff (can run on any LAMP system) and then you
can have multiple secondary name-servers that poll the Database to
configure themselves. The system includes a bit of billing too.
ie - What I'm saying is that its not too difficult to set up - then you
can enforce the "two authoritative name-servers" rule.
Its not open-source but once you have the idea - not difficult to do.
