All,


I have configured DNS zone transfer security using MD5. I’m 99.5% positive that it is configured correctly. However, when I use ethereal on an initial zone transfer I can read the contents of the packets in clear text. I do see a tag “HMAC-MD5.SIG-ALG.REG.INT” in each packet. I need to verify that the transfers passed over the network are encrypted.

Is ethereal decrypting the message? If so, how can one view the encrypted message? Any other suggestions on verifying the zone transfers on encrypted would be appreciated!!

 

Thanks in advance!!

Ben
