The caching name servers (on LAN) contact the root servers and the SOA of the queried domains directly don't they? I did not quite follow what you mean by "de-randomising DNS lookup requests." Are you saying these NAT devices are aware of the root servers and redirect the query packets to the DNS servers configured into instead? -- Arun Khan _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
