The .museum TLD is weird. All undefined second-level domains resolve to 195.7.77.20 (a/k/a index.museum). So checkdnsrr() doesn't tell you anything at all about second-level domains under .museum. -Dave Editors note: This applies to all TLDs that have a wildcard covering all non-existant domains. This may at some point in the future include .com or .net and does already cover other domains. If you are unsure just try a couple of random domains that can't possibly exist. If they both resolve to the same IP address and checkdnserr() returns false, you may have to check the IP. --was-- The .museum TLD is weird.
