As timing would have it, I am in-process of taking a new security professional under my wing (for whatever that is worth) and have been using (among other items) your 2005 publication; "The Tao of Network Security Monitoring".<BR/><BR/>This new series that you are putting on TechTarget is a perfect companion-piece to the tools and processes that he is immersed in. The "junior to intermediate networkers" information is perfect for the learning-curve that we have given him. Great job!<BR/><BR/>If this keeps up, I'm going to have to buy you a drink (actually, I'm about an hour from you, +/-)<BR/><BR/>thanks again<BR/>~tcmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088979.post-67976763158538753562008-08-05T03:53:00.000-04:002008-08-05T03:53:00.000-04:00if this will be placed in roads. this would be so ...if this will be placed in roads. this would be so difficult to follow. hahaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088979.post-56605533968089413652008-08-04T13:05:00.000-04:002008-08-04T13:05:00.000-04:00Nice overview of common dns tools Richard.

I would have liked more background information on the tools - who maintains them and their availability - even if they were just hyperlinks in the text as it is. <BR/><BR/>One correction: MX records are optional (<A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc974.txt" REL="nofollow">rfc974</A>)- MTA's should treat an empty list of MX RR's as if it contained one RR, an MX RR with a preference value of 0 and a host name of the queried domain. I have no MX records on my vanity domain and have no problems receiving mail.Grant Stavelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18392515194908939758noreply@blogger.com
