Hello, I used to get a lot of these kind of junk queries for ripe.net and isc.org in ANY type. I just manually block these source IPs in iptables. I did this work for several months and there was no more junk queries after. Also, one of my another DNS server was hacked or whatever and was used

Actually I don't have very good idea about it. It's kind of you just cannot do anything about it. Also you're not the server used to attack others so there're less action can be done. I just think you can upgrade to BIND 9, because you're ISP level so most actions I have done , you can't do it.

Sounds like the internet is using your external dns server to do recursive queries. This will reduce the unwanted queries. On your external dns server, create 2 views, one for your internal dns forwarders to point to (recursive) and one for internet queries to you (authoritative). Name them Insi

openldap, dlz and dynamic dns updates from isc-dhcpd

2012-09-21 Thread Jeff Lasslett
Hello List, I would like to use openldap to store DHCP config and DNS zones. I've scoured the web for howtos and I've learned a lot. For openldap backed DNS it seems that DLZ is the best option (faster, and the data is better organised in ldap). My main question is about dynamic updates from the
