If we're only talking based on experience everyone will have their own
opinion.  My personal experience I love OpenBSD for DNS servers.  But
only because I've gotten to the point where I can drop a new slave in
about 20 minutes including install.

Certainly others are the same with Debian, RHEL, and anything else.
Just go with what you know.

You'll have better luck looking for information on how to spin straw into gold.

What you want will need to be handled within the webserver itself.

Re: Implementing the bogon list

2010-04-09 Thread Bryan Irvine
I think that's really designed for router ACL's.

Most reliable method might be to subscribe to their BGP feed.

I'm not sure what you'd do with regards to BIND or even why you'd want
to handle it there.

Might not be what you are looking for but sounds like some of the

Re: how to defense against ddos attack to dns?

2009-11-20 Thread Bryan Irvine
Basically, you have to have a big enough server/cluster of servers, to
absorb an attack.

No real defense from distributed dos.

I've think I've found the confirmation I was looking for in RFC 2181
section 10.2.

Does this seem to confirm that round-robin PTR's are perfectly legal?

10.2. PTR records

   Confusion about canonical names has lead to a belief that a PTR
   record should have exactly one RR in its RRSet.  This is incorrect,
   the relevant section of RFC1034 (section 3.6.2) indicates that the
   value of a PTR record should be a canonical name.  That is, it should
   not be an alias.  There is no implication in that section that only
   one PTR record is permitted for a name.  No such restriction should
   be inferred.

   Note that while the value of a PTR record must not be an alias, there
   is no requirement that the process of resolving a PTR record not
   encounter any aliases.  The label that is being looked up for a PTR
   value might have a CNAME record.  That is, it might be an alias.  The
   value of that CNAME RR, if not another alias, which it should not be,
   will give the location where the PTR record is found.  That record
   gives the result of the PTR type lookup.  This final result, the
   value of the PTR RR, is the label which must not be an alias.

Yes but is it explicitely forbidden anywhere?  RFC's maybe?  I can't
find anything that says you shouldn't other than the majority of
people say it's dumb.  (Sometimes you need an RFC to point to in order
to get someone to fix something that is clearly not working

I think you are looking the wrong way.  DNS doesn't change as quickly
as you are hoping it does.  There's ISP caches, OS caches, and
application caches.  Most of these even cache failed lookups and a lot
of times they also ignore TTL's.

I've done what you are thinking of (with the exception of the 10 idle
servers (which makes no sense to me)) with OpenBSD's relayd.  If you
want to spend lots of money then an F5 solution would do the trick as
well.
