Hello everyone, this is possibly off-topic here, not entirely sure.
I'm kind of confused about some of uceprotect's policies, they seem to
require every IP address to have reverse DNS with matching forwards (which
works fine for a wireless/broadband/dial-up ISP, but not so much for a hosting
company/datacenter). They seem to penalize companies who have many small
allocations from ARIN/whomever while rewarding companies who have huge swaths
of IP addresses in single chunks. They don't seem to understand that in a
datacenter a single machine running virtuozzo/vmware can have any number of IPs
assigned to it and that not everything can be so tightly scripted/controlled.
They currently take issue with 106 out of almost 54,000 IP addresses and our AS
appears to be listed in their list. That seems extreme to me. My question is,
has anyone had a problem with uceprotect.net's system and then been able to
satisfy their requirements on an ongoing basis? We'll obviously do whatever it
takes because we really have no choice. We've found ISPs with over 100,000 IPs
using their list(s) so obviously it has an impact.
Off-list is fine, sorry to bother anyone if this is off-topic.
Thanks for your time.
