The list stated is what Cisco recommends in thier work
around for the transit ACL.

The exploit for this has already come out and they
state that you don't need any combinations, just 76
packets of one of the protocols. I gave it a quick
read through and you can find it at:

Take a look, it may help you refine the ACLs that you
want.

I don't think you have to put all the access-list
in.  I believe that 
the hack requires a certain combination of packets
to the four ports, 
so leaving one or two of them open should still
prevent the hack.  That 
might be a good question for Cisco TAC...they should
be willing to help 
even if you "misplaced" your SmartNet contract
information.  ;-)

will this access list modification prevent my
internal DNS server 
from updates to it self from my telco's DNS
server?

access-list 101 deny 53 any any
access-list 101 deny 55 any any
access-list 101 deny 77 any any
access-list 101 deny 103 any any
!--- insert any other previously applied ACL
entries here
!--- you must permit other protocols through to
allow normal
!--- traffic -- previously defined permit lists
will work
!--- or you may use the permit ip any any shown
here
access-list 101 permit ip any any

Thanks in advance
