Thank you! Yes. This, and checking the SSH key, seem to both be very promising solutions to the problem. I will be investigating and trying both, to try to establish how well they might work in practice. It will be great if both work, because some bad actors will be running SSH (on a known or findable port) and others won't be. And likewise, some bad actors will be running their own name servrs and others won't be. So it will be Good to have several tools in the toolbox. _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
