Don't use that address - rather use 'mje at posix.co.za'

Umm...yes - I teach DNS with Johan Ihren - including DNSSEC in the
advance course - and have been doing that for the last 5 or so years -
twice a year.

I'm also to add DNSSEC to the 'co.za' zone - but treading water until we
have finished the new COZA EPP system - which will allow DS/DNSKEY
records to be added to the zone via EPP.

Personally - I have set up a web page - 'www.dnssec.co.za' - which
explains to one how to set up a DNSSEC aware resolver and at the Last
AfriNIC meeting (in Dar es Salaam), gave a presentation on a DNS Script
to sign zones - code available on 'www.posixafrica.com'.

I also sign a whole bunch of both Forward and Reverse zones. The Forward
ones (posix.co.za, etc) are validated via ISC's DLV. I'm waiting on
AfriNIC for the Reverse.

I should be in Dakar - and willing to help in any way.
