This has always been a messy zone file. It has nothing to do with any attack whatsoever. If you want to be really anal, you can contact the hostmaster; if that doesn't work, try <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/share/spamassassin$ host -l pgp.net > Host pgp.net not found: 5(REFUSED) > ; Transfer failed. > > Intersting. No idea what's up here. Only a couple (maybe even only one) of the DNS servers allow AXFR (zone transfer) requests, and the one that is closest to you network wise doesn't. Try a "host -t ns pgp.net" and use the results until you find one that works. ns[01].pipex.net work; I just tried them.
