I got one, and my mailer is compliant. Maybe he's confirming e-mail addresses for spam?

Verizon mail server on MAPS RSS list
by Josh Gentry 28 Mar '03

28 Mar '03

We've got customers trying to receive email from people using Verizon for Internet acess, and we are rejecting that mail because out013pub.verizon.net [206.46.170.44] is on the MAPS RSS list. Can't pull up the MAPS RSS website at the moment to check why. Anyone know contact info for Verizon for this kind of issue? Thanks.

> >http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=8595 While they are at it, it would be nice if a carefully applied lobbying could transform that into something that made more sense security-wise. After dealing with one too many DDoS attacks, I would gladly mantain storage of a few weeks worth of netflow data for security uses if everybody was (a) required to do the same, and (b) required to assist when an attack is detected. Hey, one can be optimistic from time to time. Before flames begin, let me say that I hold no hope of something remotely similar to the above coming true in the foreseeable future. Nor do I like the idea of the Internet being ruled by laws, which in addition are written by people without a clue, in the first place. -- Alfredo Sola, after receiving an e-mail from an administrator of a smurf amplifier claiming that we, the attacked party, are actually the attackers.

Re: DNS dDos Attack!
by Dan Armstrong 28 Mar '03

28 Mar '03

Sorry, I lied. We are running 8.34Release What I cannot figure out is why *our* name server is sending out ICMP unreachables. The incoming dns queries are coming from random destinations.... I have blocked icmp 3 incoming from that DMZ as not to overwhelm the CEF in any other routers, but whoever is doing this has this name server at it's knees. Dan.

DNS dDos Attack!
by Dan Armstrong 28 Mar '03

28 Mar '03

I am sorry if this has come up before, but it seems that one of our name servers is under some sort of dDos attack. It seems to be receiving millions of queries form spoofed IPs, and it is spending all of it's time sending back icmp unreachables. It is running bind 4.31 under BSD 4.62STABLE Help! Thanks, Dan.

Photographs of Iraqi telecomunication facilities
by Sean Donelan 28 Mar '03

28 Mar '03

The Washington Post has on-line photographs of several of the major telecommunication facilities in Bahgdad. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/inatl/longterm/fogofwar/index/photos.h… The Washington Times is reporting that US had infilitrated the main telecommunication exchange in Baghdad, and wiretapped some of the circuits. Which may explain why it wasn't attacked earlier.
