[RndTbl] muug.ca down?

Is my belief/solution here too simple?  Why not just edit the (darned) DNS
zone file of muug.ca and give it exactly the same type A records (for IPv4)
as found in the zone file of muug.mb.ca, assuming that you do actually want
both muug.mb.ca and muug.ca hosted in the same place.  Additional type AAAA
records (for IPv6) are of course welcome to exist.  Oh, you would also need
to make sure that the hosting of muug.mb.ca is set up to recognize an HTTP
1.1 request for muug.ca - merely pointing muug.ca to the same hosting isn't
quite enough.

You should also make sure that www points to the same place, either via
CNAME or via an identical type A record.
