Why are so many DNS requests necessary at all?2005-03-31 15:44:12I hope I'm not speaking out-of-turn and I do realize that a lot of effort has been expended on this project thus far... But, since I am not so familiar with this problem and I believe I may be able to provide a fresh perspective... Here is my question on the DNS topic:
Why are so many DNS requests necessary at all?
It seems to me that any system that needs IP verification via DNS should do so for only the one IP that it needs to verify. Simplified: reverse the verification role and have the DNS (server) zone verify the requested IP and then reply with a pass or fail type token (or it can return the IP itself or no IP if that IP fails.) This approach seems more efficient and certainly more secure (since no information more than that which is already known is revealed.) If I am not seeing the big picture, someone please direct me to that picture (or link.) Again, I am not well versed on this problem I hope that has been made clear but I do wish to help it along (if at all possible.)
