ATT Broadband was sold to Comcast a while ago. There is no more attbi clue. If you find someone, add these to the list of misconfigured Windows users trying to "update" other people's DNS servers. acl "bogon" { // Annoying dynamic DNS updates from this address 68.39.224.6; 68.38.156.178; 68.38.152.156; 68.38.158.209; };
PS. why is this so hard?
Are you talking about the kitchen sink protocol called DNS, or trying to contact another ISP, or the sociological difficulties of educating the general public how to configure very complicated "personal" computers and software without making a mistake? Why is dynamic DNS update enabled by default on some operating systems?
