Fixing Open DNS: msg#00078

Subject: Fixing Open DNS
Pessoal,

Alguém sabe algo sobre isso (abaixo):

        # Fixing Open DNS Servers
        # An open DNS server is a DNS server that responds to recursive 
queries
        # (queries for domains that the DNS server is not authoritative 
for, such as
        # websites that you go to, or domains that you send mail to, 
rather than your own domain),
        # and does so for anyone (rather than just clients on your local 
network).
        # When DNS servers and mailservers were originally put into use, 
they were all open.
        # That's just how the Internet was way back when. Over the 
years, spammers started relaying through
        # open relays, so the best practice became not to run open relay 
mailservers. For quite a
        # few years now, best practice has been not to have a DNS server 
be both authoritative and
        # caching (doing recursive lookups). But most DNS servers are 
still open.
        #
        # The problem is that there are now DDoS attacks (attacks that 
send lots of data to a computer,
        # so that it becomes overloaded) that use open DNS servers, 
using amplification (sending small
        # packets to a computer that then sends large packets to the 
victim, making it possible to send
        # more data to the victim). Specifically, a UDP DNS packet is 
sent with a forged source IP address
        # (the one of the victim), and a query is made in a small packet 
(about 75 bytes) for a domain that
        # has a very large response packet (using EDNS0, it can be 4,000 
or more bytes). The response
        # packet then goes to the victim. The victim gets about 50 times 
as much data as the attacker
        # is sending out. So with a dialup connection, they could 
saturate a T1 line.
        #
        # NOTE: These instructions show you how to completely disable 
recursion. This is the best practice.
        # However, if you need to run a DNS server that is both 
authoritative and recursive/caching, you
        # will need to check the DNS server documentation to find out 
how to enable recursive lookups only
        # for your local network. It seems that there is no way to do 
this with Microsoft DNS; if so, you
        # will need to use other DNS server software or use a hosted DNS 
service. If anyone is aware of a way
        # to get Microsoft DNS to allow recursion only to specific IP 
ranges, please let us know -- lots of
        # people would like to do that.
        #
        # Fixing BIND
        # Open named.conf with a text editor
        # Use a line "recursion no;" in the "options" clause (or in the 
"view" clause)
        # If you need to enable recursion for your local network, you 
can use a
        # "allow-recursion { ADD_LIST_OF_YOUR_IP_RANGES_HERE; }" line in 
the "options" section.
        # [Use caution; BIND files are easy to break]
        # For complete hardening, see
