What I think would be more useful is if named actually reported the issues to where they'd do some good. Perhaps a DNS extension "I got an invalid message from you" - so it shows up in the log of the server (and administrator) with the problem. (I'd worry about denial of service, though if the server is in fact lame, it's not providing service - at least to that zone . Abuse of the reporting mechanism is the main risk, and avoiding it would take some careful engineering.)
From the perspective of the service provider this line of though is backasswards. It is not an "invalid message" for an authoritative server to tell the cache asking the question that the domain is not hosted here. When a DNS hosting customer stops paying for DNS hosting service, their domain gets removed from the hosting providers auth servers.
It is the delegation that is wrong, not the response from the DNS server. -- Dave _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
