I know just enough about this to be dangerous. I have bind9 running on 22.04 Server. I have noticed many entries in the syslog from named such as this....
Aug 23 16:40:39 homesvr01 named[29547]: validating sync.adtelligent.com/CNAME: no valid signature found
Aug 23 16:40:39 homesvr01 named[29547]: validating sync.vertamedia.com/CNAME: no valid signature found
Aug 23 16:47:06 homesvr01 named[29547]: message repeated 3 times: [ validating sync.vertamedia.com/CNAME: no valid signature found]
Aug 23 16:47:35 homesvr01 named[29547]: validating plex.tv/A: no valid signature found
However when I run dig on the sites logged it returns an answer.
