   [...] Final update: See the List of free DNS services. I’m staying with xname, though did add a couple of secondaries for better fault protection. [...]

   I run a DNS service too at http://www.gratisdns.de.
   I think a reason, why xname.org was attacked often is, that it’s a completely free service.
   Attackers seem to host their SPAM sites there and are not happy, if their sites will be removed.
   I personally tried to solve this general problem by forcing my users to make a donation, if
   they want to stay for a longer time on my servers. For this reason i only have a small number
   of complaints regarding my users.
   So my service is working as a “Shareware” DNS service.

   My general recommendation for all affected users is to have at least 1 reliable secondary DNS at another location/provider.

   (Regarding granitecanyon: The site doesn’t work since some years !!)

   Thanks for commenting! I find 1 EUR/year for a single domain NS a very good proposal.
   I edited your comment to fix the link…
   Also, I added a note to granitecanyon on its last updated date.

   New service - http://www.freedns.ws … I like it!

   wow, it’s hosted by hosting.ua

   I strongly suspect that freedns.ws is going to become non-free quite soon… but still, added to the list.
