Ah yes, using an unregistered domain name with a real TLD is a no-no. When are people using AD going to get this? � AD must be configured correctly or else problems will come up when you least expect it. � John Tolmachoff MCSE CSSA Engineer/Consultant eServices For You www.eservicesforyou.com � -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matthew Bramble Sent: Monday, September 22, 2003 12:52 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] VeriSteal is stealing traffic from your domain. � I figured it out.� The problem is definitely with Active Directory.� Turning off DNS Client on the local server only created a situation where their first bogus sub-domain would timeout but a retry would still go to SiteFinder.� Here's what nslookup returns when directed at the DNS server on the co-located machine (not running Active Directory): > adsfadsfasfdadsf.declude.com Server:� ns1.igaia.com Address:� 208.7.179.11
Non-authoritative answer: Name:��� adsfadsfasfdadsf.declude.com.primary.igaiaoffice.com Address:� 64.94.110.11 That's the bogus sub-domain appended to my local Active Directory domain (replaced for security with an equivalent).�� The issue relates to the fact that my real Active Directory domain name is not registered and lies in the .com namespace, so when the lookup fails on the primary server, it goes back to the local Active Directory server and appends the lookup that produces no match to my unregistered Active Directory name, which returns the IP for SiteFinder.� If I registered my Active Directory name, I wouldn't be directed to SiteFinder.
