SV: [cobalt-developers] DNS GUI Bug

["Kai R Schantz, euroweb as" <schantz@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

This can be the reason why my raq3i and raq4r are accepting
xfer zone transfers to IP`s i don`t now or have listed in the allow list. I
have asked many times on user-list and cobalt about this. Why the servers
deny some and allow others to get xfer zone transfers when non of them are
in my network or listed as trusted..

Another thing this bug is proberly nown to some hackers, becuse my servers
has been hacked 3 times, every time there is a lot of Xfer transfers towards
servers i dont now..
