Paul,
I've forwarded it to a contact of ours at abuse who should be able to
get it taken care of. I also forwarded the other one from Sean.

PS. why is this so hard?
Are you talking about the kitchen sink protocol called DNS, or ...
Specifically, I want to know why Comcast makes itself so hard to reach.
I'll bet I could get them to talk to me about this host if it were DDoS'ing
me, or if I aggressively NMAP'd it at 25Mbits/sec
Back in beta days, the official explanation given was that the DNS
updating was a value add and that it would never be disabled as
a default as a courtesy to corporate customers. Furthermore, MSFT
folks have repeatedly said that the workaround is to simply configure
your nameserver to
The only way to reach Comcast (in my experience) is to get a phone number from
the customer having a problem. Sometimes that is slightly more helpful.
In the recent DC power outage it was clear that my power company did not want
to be reachable. The same is true for at less a couple of the

I'm not able to duplicate what you report. All indications from
the vectors I've tried are that CPAN is alive and well.
Got more info?

Paul,
How about just configuring your BIND to return errors when his queries
against your server? He has got to be using you as either a primary or
secondary name server. That would make everything on that machine suddenly
come to a grinding halt as nothing would resolve anymore.

How about just
How should an ISP tell the difference between good DNS packets and bad

the bad ones are the ones people complain about.
You aren't complaining about your dynamic update packets or even all
dynamic updates. You are complaining about someone sending you packets
you don't want.

Some cable user's machine running default-configured MS apps
is sending Paul dynamic DNS queries that it shouldn't,
because somehow it's decided he's got an interesting destination

Paul wants the user to get an error popup about it.
