I don't know what exactly is going on but there seem to be dns issues. By
the way, what is NANOG and where to get it ? None of the servers are avaible
from Belgium at 06:54AM CET, might i add it is crucial to supply a time at
wich you made your tests and supply some information on wich site/ip you
tried to contact. (yes, i'm unemployed and have had a bad night sleep,
hehe )
In my experience this could indeed indicate some sort of D-o-S attack on the
webserver IP address but there is more.
Following the samspade.org/t tool i got these results :
http://www.samspade.org/t/dns?a=aljazeera.net
http://www.samspade.org/t/dns?a=english.aljazeera.net
http://www.samspade.org/t/dns?a=mail.aljazeera.net
Note that bothe mail.aljazeera.net and english.aljazeera.net have a
completely different IP address.
Also, the traceroutes show, very likely, some sort of pre-emptive blocking
of traffic to the aljazeera dns's wich might be related to a DDOS indeed.
Though a serious DDos would not focus on a DNS. The IP's involved show some
oddities as well related to the WHOIS results from different locations,
check it out. I've done inquiries from samspade.org and some other websites
as well. Using the DNS servers in Belgium i get a more real-world result
then the apparently flawed DNS database wich samspade had been using. Hurray
for local-dns-servers.
