WebSite / Blog Problems
For the past few weeks ive been having some DNS related problems with my blog/website. The host and myself arnt sure exactly whats going on but it seems somewhat random.
Yesterday i could access my site at all form uni – kept telling me the host was unknown, yet other people outside of uni could see it fine. Today – its working fine again. Chances are tomorrow it will be down. Weird.
But yeah, thats why theres been a general lack of updates.
I read about some bouts of “DNS poisoning” going on lately, whereby a hacker will poison an organisation’s DNS tables by exploiting a flaw in the way the open source BIND software and Microsoft’s DNS software interact with one another
– before you go off at Microsoft, the problem is only caused by the older versions of BIND – which has since been fixed (Y)
Maybe this is what’s responsible for your blog problems?
