Byc moze juz Panstwo to zauwazyli, byc moze nie... Od kilku dni sa klopoty
z zamiana numeru IP na adresy w wielu wezlach. Spowalnia to powaznie
proces polaczenia z serwerem ftp, gophera czy www...

Pozwalam sobie podeslac list z comp.protocols.tcp-ip.domains informujacy rowniez
o tym problemie...

There seems to be an infection going around of bogus NS records for
in-addr.arpa, pointing to ird.scitex.com. At least one root server,
ns.nasa.gov, has caught the thing. This is preventing IP address-to-name
translations at some sites, depending on what else is in the site's
nameserver's cache. For instance, we currently can't use the anonymous
ftp server at ftp.uu.net apparently because ns.uu.net is infected and
their ftp server requires IP address translation for the client's address.

Can anyone give me some suggestions as to how to resolve this sort of
thing? (I'm sending copies of this posting to the postmasters at
ftp.uu.net and ns.nasa.gov, and to the email addrs given in their domains'
SOA records.) If this is not the right newsgroup, I would appreciate
pointers to a more appropriate forum.

Thanks,
