Re: dos attack on my server

im not running a dns server, i was informed that i would need to open port 53 for dns in order for the domain names to resolve to this server. is this not the case?
port forwarding was set up for this particular port. i will take it out of the firewall exceptions and see what impact that has.

the affect on the server was such that the attacks/request were so frequent that all traffic was affected.
