You're saying there are DNS clients out there that *default* to TCP for DNS lookups???
Not as far as I know, but a while ago, I discovered a buggy DNS server that stopped answering to UDP requests and still answered to TCP. If there had been a way to force the resolver library to switch to TCP, I would have done so (at least for this broken domain). I suspect I am not the first one to think about this... Anyway, this message is only a "security note". Is that so important? _______________________________________________ Nessus mailing list Nessus@list.nessus.org http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/nessus
