Well that came at a very bad time. Yesterday on the day of the PowerDNS Recursor 3.0 release, our cabinet over at Level3 dropped off the net. Much debugging later it appeared one of the customer hosts was compromised and filling the ethernet with tiny packets at line rate.
Apologies. The owner of said (Windows) machine will be coerced into providing an evening of drinks and entertainment to compensate our nightly labours.
