    You were the first to mention it, I am studying the subject.

    One interesting thing to quote, and sorry about the ignorance, is:

    Is possible to restart the DNS server with such attack?
    The local where the .zone and named.inc ( dns conf file ) file are stored is
    protected with these permission "-rw-r--r--", only root can modify or
    add new files ( theorically ).

    I am fear that the attacker is getting root privileges somewhere else
    to do that.

    But maybe in my research about dns poisonig I can get the answer.

    I will isolate the server to run a sniffer and check the queries, if the
    problem is with DNS it will be easier to detect even for a newbie :-) .

    Thanks.
