Dan Kaminsky Suggests Having Fun with DNS

Posted by timothy on from the bits-is dept.

boogahsmalls writes "A few weekends ago Dan Kaminsky of scanrand fame presented some pretty cool ideas involving DNS that made plenty of heads spin at the LayerOne Technology Conference. Some of his concepts included Voice over DNS and storing Knoppix in a DNS cache. He's also apparently got a couple new tools in the pipe including a scanrand based DNS scanner and a visualization suite. Could another version of Paketto Keiretsu be in the works?" (OpenOffice.org does a great job of opening the PowerPoint slideshow.)

    The minute you have a funny hostname, some admin is spinning in his chair thinking of a multitude of religious reasons why it's wrong.

    Ooooh, I can SO relate. Those fucking llamaz came to me all the time, trying to ruin my perfectly organized DNS hierarchy with their "funny" hostnames.

    I'd discuss the paper, but it's in a format I can't view.

    I run a Win2K DNS server on base for our primary. With IPsec policy and Router ACLs the box is very stable and robust. I am kind of wondering why people have such problems with DNS. I am sure A linux DNS box would work superb too but I dont know. Anyone clue me in?
