Regarding the new DNS cache poisoning problems: I was told that the
way they resolved the problem was to randomize the source ports. I was
wondering if I needed to make any changes to PF firewall, as I'm
currently running DNS through a single port (TCP/UDP domain port). I
have a strict firewall policy that only allows specified ports, but
should I change this?

Also I'm using MaraDNS, if that helps.

Thanks!

Hi Kyle,

MaraDNS was already using randomization. Leave PF the way it was, you are good to go.
