Hi
Thanks for the reply unforutnately I'm still getting the unresolvable error:
tcpdump -n -i eth0 not port 22 and not port 53 and not host
a72-246-55-1.deploy.akamaitechnologies.com and not ip proto \\icmp
tcpdump: unknown host 'a72-246-55-1.deploy.akamaitechnologies.com'
Any ideas?
Thanks
Dan
It appears to be an unresolvable internal address at Akamai. I get all
sorts of responses from "dig any akamaitechnologies.com" but I get a "no
server" for either the specific host or deploy.akamaitechnologies.com.
You'll need to come up with a different way of excluding that host
(e.g., not net akamaitechnologies.com).
Not resolving internal hosts for external name queries is pretty
standard. Logwatch tells me I'm getting several queries every day for
hosts on my internal net that I've used as examples in posting.
Cheers,
Dave
