It looks like cox is hijacking dns for irc servers.
And people wonder why I support DNSsec....
Steve,
One of us is confused. It might be me, but right now I think it's you.
To be clear, here is the situation as I understand it: Cox has
configured their recursive name servers such that when an end user
queries the recursive server for a specific host name (names?), the
recursive server responds with an IP address the host's owner did not
configure.
How exactly is DNSSEC going to stop them from doing this?
