Услышал недавно, что http может через srv записи работать

_ля, а я сервис микроблоггинга хотел на основе DNS делать, а в перспективе вообще от http отказаться.

HTTP Laggards' Hall of Shame

To the shame and embarrassment of their authors, web browsers and proxy HTTP servers still do not perform SRV lookups. Web browser software authors have still, 6 years after the idea was first proposed, to add SRV lookup to their web browsers.

*The work item for having SRV lookups added to Mozilla has languished for over 5 years.

*Squid doesn't yet employ SRV lookups.

*Whilst Microsoft Windows Server networking is an exemplar that many point to when discussing the use of SRV resource records, whilst Microsoft's Windows 2000 Resource Kit even gives examples of _http._tcp SRV resource records, and whilst the suggestion having been on Microsoft's suggestions list for a couple of years now, Microsoft's own Internet Explorer still does not perform SRV lookups.
