Are there any ISPs in NZ that have DNS resolvers that do DNSSEC properly yet? This is important due to all the caching/etc that goes on. Last time I checked, XNet/wxc's DNS resolvers don't do it.

So far we are not aware of any active validating nameserver in NZ, or heard plans about it. We definitely can find out based on the nameservers data. Cheers,

Dear Technical Community,

The next step towards completing the DNSSEC deployment for .nz is to sign the second level domains, thus allowing registrants to enable DNSSEC for their domains. We have prepared a staggered deployment schedule for the unmoderated second level domains, which is available in full at http://nzrs.net.nz/dns/dnssec

As a summary, geek.nz will be the first DNSSEC signed second level domain, closely followed by ac.nz, gen.nz, maori.nz and school.nz, all during June. In July, net.nz and org.nz will be signed, ending with co.nz during early August.

As a reminder, the SRS has been able to receive DS records for domains under .nz since last year, and those records will be included in their respective zone when DNSSEC is fully enable for the second level domain.

We advise against using any of the Second Level Domains DS records as a trust anchors.

If you have any questions around this process, don't hesitate to contact us at support(a)nzrs.net.nz
