Is it = some sort of malicious attack? They are sending it once every minute. -----Original Message----- From: quickdns-talk@lists.menandmice.com [mailto:quickdns-talk@lists.menandmice.com]On Behalf Of Men & Mice Support Sent: Tuesday, October 05, 2004 12:09 PM To: QuickDNS Talk Subject: Re: Security Errors It means someone sent a dynamic update packet to your server, and it=20 was rejected. If your zone valleyforgeflag.com isn't set to be dynamic, don't worry=20 about why the update message was rejected. For some reason, BIND=20 evaluates the prerequisites contained in an update before checking=20 whether the zone is static or dynamic. Even if the prerequisite had=20 been satisfied, BIND wouldn't have applied the update to a static=20 zone.
