Do you mean the same one as I do? That one doesn't do anything
else than "bruteforce-downloading" the entire zone on host-by-host
basis (the only "speedups" come from the possibility of having the
entire /24, /16 or even /8 network blacklisted).
I'd like to hear any definite statement about plausibility of this
"pseudo zone transfer"; it's certainly beyond my Internet
connection limits (64kb, pair per byte transferred). (Even the mere
idea of spawning 2^32 grep's is beyond my comprehension.)
In other words, did anyone actually try?
