I had had a lot of hope for DNAMEs, but they were shot down in the ietf<br>
years ago. Vestiges survive in "bind", at least, but I suspect there is<br>
little application support.<br>
<br>
I would not mind an attempt to resurrect them. Naming in the face of<br>
being renumbered all the time by various ipv4 and ipv6 providers is a<br>
real PITA.<br>

I don't get why you said they were "shot down". The DNAME record type<br>
is standards track with 2 RFCs issued. Starting as RFC 2672 and updated<br>
3 years ago with RFC 6672. As far as I can see they're supported by<br>
most of the open source authoritative name servers and recursive<br>
resolvers (BIND, NSD / Unbound, Knot, Yadifa, MaraDNS), commercial<br>
implementations such as Cisco, Nominum, Microsoft as well as OS<br>
resolvers.<span class=""><font color="#888888"><br></font></span></blockquote><div><br><br>I stand corrected.
