I guess you need to read some of the related papers/presentations/advisories/etc related to a subject that has been under discussion for more 20+ years. Answering your questions, as said before, the patch is NO FIX to the problem, it's just a workaround that (together with an appropiate architecture and following well know best practices for DNS deployment) *may* reduce the chances of becoming a victim of the exploit. The solution ? DNSSEC, I believe Paul is asking people interested to learn more about what needs to be done to get it done to discuss the subject in the dns-operations list. My .02 Regards Jorge
