They're individual submissions (the absence of "dnsop" from their
names might have provided a clue). They were submitted according to
the normal published procedure.
If you can provide details to expand upon the fact you describe
above, that would be most helpful. Without some context, I am
struggling to understand what you are talking about.
You have already provided the details: That is, the fact that you
didn't
consider the attacks to be actual attacks, but rather "panic attacks".
That's not the case, so my question remains.
Your advice to treat reports of abuse seriously is of course valid,
but unnecessary in this case.
How is it that you know this? You assert complaints were made, and
that you
disregarded those complaints; that the admins "panic'ed".
Complaints were made, the complaints were answered, and none were
disregarded, as I said, and as you quoted:
All the calls I responded to were investigated thoroughly. I have no
reason to doubt that any of the other calls which were handled with
others enjoyed any less diligence.
It sounds very much like the admins making the complaints, disagreed.
How you can presume to know details of private phone calls is a
little perplexing.
Perhaps if you send me the contact info for some of those admins,
I'll follow up to see
if they were satisfied with your response.
If I ever feel the need to solicit volunteers to perform a customer
satisfaction survey for anything I do, you'll be the first person I
call :-)
all of them involved replies being returned from the Internet
towards hosts
that firewall admins had not considered might ever send requests
to the
outside world.
Please explain this, further. So machines that weren't nameservers
were sending
DNS requests (for in-addr.arpa) to the outside world?
Please read the draft. This is described in some detail.
