Search Again: Spoofing From: Simon Forster Date: Wednesday, November 10, 1999 Time: 6:52:00 pm Hi all OK, 'nother question (average out at around one every quarter I think). Recently I was checking a domain using the most excellent DNS Expert when it returned a new and frightening error - namely that our DNS server is vulnerable to spoofing. GULP. I'm fairly confident that previously, our DNS server was given the all clear by DNS Expert. So what's changed? And the funny thing is we're running QDNS as our DNS server. Have I done something to open up a vulnerability or is this DNS Expert being over zealous - it reports every name server as being vulnerable to spoofing! Or am I being really dumb and this can be ignored if you're running remote diagnostics? Puzzled AND confused.
