So far, the same resultsI'm sorry, I should have asked you also to use a non-existent IP address for the target; ie, one on your network but not currently assigned. Don't bother, though; I think this is a serious bug. I just tried this myself and observed nessusd hammering my nameserver - 66000+ queries in a bit over 1 minute!!! Do you want to open up a bug report in Bugzilla or should I?
I can if you like. But I think you may be able to explain the issue much better than I. Just let me know if you'd like me to do it. Thank you for all of your help. I guess if you open the bug report, can you let me know how to track it?
