Re: Allow-Query=any

2016-01-07 Thread Warren Kumari
Yah, I guess it does kinda :-)
I seem to remember Olafur or Marek admitted that including the text was an
ugly, temporary kludge, and provided some "cover" so that is was more clear
that this was the intended behavior, and not that e.g they had just not
fully implemented ANY (as many DNS load-balancers / middleboxes seem to
do). Once this becomes common practice the HINFO can go to null.

Personally I think that they should have instead:
A: inserted naughty limericks or
B: sold this space off as advertising space.

DISCLAIMER: B is a joke... although huh

RE: Allow-Query=any

I do find it a little ironic that the HINFO RDATA shown earlier in the thread, 
references the "refuse-any" draft, yet, in the selfsame RDATA, violates one of 
the "SHOULD"s of the draft:

"The OS field of the HINFO RDATA SHOULD be set to the null string to minimise 
the size of the response."

Kind of sends a mixed message, don't you think?

i did read and understand the reasoning long before this thread as i also had 
the RRL patches in production long before they went to stable releases 
http://www.tummy.com/blogs/2013/02/20/bindrrl-patched-rpms-available/

with RRL and "minimal-responses yes;" the response size/impact of a ANY query 
is very limited while that is a completly different reasoning than "I don't

you don't get it

if i want to ask for your SOA or NS-records then i ask for them

there is *NO POINT* you can prohibit that unless you need a working

what would happen if you can achieve it:

prohibit things just for the sake of prohibit them is clueless,

while what you want makes *zero* sense because you can not hide 
mandatory infos with "minimal-responses yes;" the responses are way 
shorter and DNS traffic goes down by around 20% on a auth nameserver 
because the stripped "ADDITIONAL SECTION"


as already explained: when somebody wants a information which exists in 
the DNS he can ask for that information - unconditionally

so, instead of providing type "ANY" you want people to flood your server
with multiple queries for type?

if you have problems, response rate limiting should be better solution.

...I received spam from comnpany with NS hosted at cloudflare that refuses ANY
query. I am considering ignoring such domains.
