Operation Ghost Click DNS servers to shut down in March - 4 views

  •  
    I think that it is kind of creative how, as a temporary solution to the problem, they converted the rogue DNS servers to legitimate DNS servers. I wonder if they used the actual servers or just their address.

    Good question Brock. Which scenario do you think would prove more difficult? Do you think you can dig into this story to find out the answer? Do you think you can find someone who knows the answer and can say?
  •  
    I do not know exactly how IP addresses are distributed, but I think that they are somewhat randomly assigned, so I think that it might be harder to reassign the IP address to a new server than to use the actual servers, but I may be wrong. I do want to dig into it more. I think that the answer could probably be found on the Internet as to who IP addresses are assigned, and I plan on looking there for such information. I think that maybe, if I do not find the answer to this myself, I could ask you, Troy Harding, Tim Bower, or a classmate.
  •  
    Hey Brock, you wrote this back in January. Do you know how IP addresses are distributed at this point in our class?
  •  
    I learned about DHCP as a method for dynamically assigning IP addresses to computers. However, I am not certain if the Internet uses them as well. I read some on the Internet about this, however.
