Search Again: Quick Dns crashing From: Ryan Clevenger Date: Friday, August 15, 2003 Time: 9:30:45 am Hey guys I have been having a strange problem recently. I upgraded my QuickDns from 3.0 to 3.5.3 running on Mac Os 9.1 on a 350mhz imac. Everything has been running great until the other day. I keep the debug log running so that I can see what is going on and such and I noticed that the log was filling up to like 300meg in a matter of a day. For about 3 days in a row the server would crash by the end of the day. So I checked the log an d here is what was showing. 540,000 lines (270,000 queries) in 2 hours 20 minutes Aug 12 14:45:20 Querying "192.31.80.30:53" about "ns1.mydnsserver.com."

This is not the only domain that I am getting it from there are about 4 or five domains that this happened to. Eventually the server gets tired of all these queries and just shuts down. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? I have no idea why the server would be querying over and over like this. Any help would be much appreciated.
