Hi all, One of our servers is on a slowish adsl connection, and we just got a bill for the account that says we did 5.5gig on that account in the last month.. There is nothing running on it which should be consuming bandwidth... I can maybe account for 1 gig, but not 5.5 The only thing the server is doing is a dns server, and a gateway to a couple of low usage web servers, (one win2000 one linux) The 1 gig I can account for is all the patchs and updates for the 3 machines.. (mostly win2000 patches,,, lets be honest here... :-) a look at the logs,, shows an awful lot of dns requests and responses.... I haven't seen this much dns traffic on this machine before... (I have changed the domain of our server,,, to ns.epay.net.au) does anyone know what is going on here?? this is about 5 seconds (we logged 2 minutes worth and its huge....) something I don't understand is going on here and its costing us big bucks... Any ideas anyone??? rgds Frank 13:26:51.000794 ns.epay.net.au.domain > h.root-servers.net.domain: [udp sum ok] 35633 PTR? 4.0.41.198.in-addr.arpa.
