Hi Dave,

The ns3.mdnsservice.com name server was the name server that was still LIVE.
There was no impact to this name server. Hopefully this fully clarifies the
situation for all.

Thanks,
Bruce

In our case the problem was reported by a script that queries
ns1.mdnsservice.com for information on one of our zones, and if it
doesn't get the IP it was expecting, it raises an alarm.

I wasn't monitoring ns[1-3].mdnsservice.com myself and I wasn't online
when the issue occured, so I wasn't able to do any actual debugging.
