McMartin: that's a pretty common experience for OSX upgrades, afaict

<It's a wonder anything works. Indeed I wonder if anything does.> The answer to that is "No. It's just kept shambling along with duct-tape, tears, and the sacrifices of many livers... so that it will at least /look/ like it works."
11:29
<@TheWatcher>
Yeah
11:30
<@TheWatcher>
Most people really don't realise just how bad the farcical situation is, and even among those that should there's a lot of people in outright denial
11:32
<@Tamber>
Well, it's a good job none of this broken crap is being used for anything important; that'd be so horrifying, I think *I'd* need to go into denial.

<@Julius>
Is it just me, or are DNS settings a mass of ancient messes that somehow still mostly works?

<@Alek>
yes

<&McMartin>
Not just you
21:19
<@Julius>
I'm wondering how the hell I'm supposed to fit TYPE, SERVICE, PROTOCOL, PORT, WEIGHT, PRIORITY, TTL, NAME and TARGET when my ISP gives me only TYPE, TTL, NAME and TARGET.
21:20
<@Namegduf>
The missing ones are only applicable to certain types of record.
21:20
<@Namegduf>
Which presumably they don't let you add?
21:20
<@Alek>
what fudge said, I guess.
21:20
<@Julius>
Yeah, this is SRV.
21:20
<@Julius>
It appears the ISP is using some kind of priorietary format for stuff that doesn't fit, but I can't puzzle it out.
21:26
<@Julius>
Hmm. When it tells me to put in TXT NAME of "@", what does it actually mean? Because if I put that in, the result is "@.mydomain.com" rather than "@".
21:26
<@Namegduf>
I think your ISP is sticking the ".mydomain.com" bit on the end.
21:27
<@Namegduf>
It sounds like this system's UI is really built around A records and not much else.
21:27
<@Julius>
Yes. I'd like them to stop that. Argh.
21:27
<@Namegduf>
I think it's just a display thing.
21:27
<@Namegduf>
DNS record configuration does not generally contain the zone/domain those records are for in each individual entry.
21:28
<@Namegduf>
Since you can't mix them.
21:28
<@Namegduf>
So I think the display end of things is just showing you <actual value> + <domain>
21:30
<@Julius>
Hmm.
21:30
<@Namegduf>
That would be my first guess.
21:30
<@froztbyte>
Julius: so, a couple of things
21:30
<@froztbyte>
Julius: a) most of these ISP admin panels are made of trolololo
21:31
<@froztbyte>
Julius: b) 9/10 times they're doing DNS wrong anyway, so don't get your hopes up
21:31
<@froztbyte>
Julius: c) half the time you can get "custom" (you know, TXT or SRV records...) done via the helpdesk and it'll /show/ in the admin panel
21:32
<@froztbyte>
an '@' record means "domain root"
21:32
<@froztbyte>
so with julius.cc.tld, the '@' record would be the one returned if you do a lookup on 'julius.cc.tld' (no subdomain)
21:33
<@froztbyte>
but just switch your DNS to route53, it's mostly sane and has reasonable resilliency

23:30 * Vornicus finds a stackexchange thread where people are challengingg others to find matching values to a variety of terror-inducing regexes
23:30
<~Vornicus>
Among others there's one where a matching string is equivalent to a hamiltonian path through a graph described in the regex
