The DNSStuff.com report shows the outside world can get the records,
including reverse DNS info.   The log exerpt was a bad choice where I
had temporarily closed the DNS to the outside.  I am not concerned about
the size of the log, I know several ways to erase files :)   What I am
concerned about is DNS security.   I have read several whitepapers on
the subject where DNS servers are under attack from script-kiddies so
slowly, but surely I will be converting to a split DNS topography where
there is a public side and a private side but in both cases, detecting
the attack and dynamically responding to it is a desirable goal.
