So by that you mean our dedicated SS2s with 64MB RAM each, is
"over-overkill" for DNS use? :-)

Fact is that we're slowly pushing out all the sun4c's in favor for
sun4m. Four SS4/110 will be replaced by four SS5/170, so I guess two of
those SS4s would replace the SS2s...
Everything sun4m and sun4d. Yummie. :-)
