September 25, 2008 at 11:50Eternal memory .com.ru?
So who does not know the background. Back in 2005, the attackers, taking advantage of the fact that applications to the zones .com.ru, .net.ru, .pp.ru, were sent by e-mail, sent, as stated in the document below, 140 thousand applications, which is effective disabled the service.
And here are the epoch-making, stage-by-stage and fundamental results of the next meeting of the Center's Board . The results are as follows.
1. The .com.ru zone has been frozen for registration - so far.
2. The registration of domains in the zones .net.ru, .org.ru, .pp.ru de facto is extremely difficult, because - apparently, they did so in a hurry that unfortunate DOS-day - 4 applications are accepted per hour from all RosNIIROS customers . 4 per hour from all(two years was generally one per hour).
3. ccTLD.ru has not taken any actions since then to change the situation and to return the registration in the mentioned free zones to operation. Just don’t tell me that there are no acceptable solutions to curb spammers and amateurs to register a million domains per hour. Is there no smart people in ccTLD or what? Yes, I’ll immediately name a couple of solutions.
I wonder if anyone will get a clear answer from the ccTld.ru management to a question like “how long?” - because it seems that they no longer answer my letters.
Draw your own conclusions. In the meantime, let's drink to the ongoing lethargy .com.ru and the most operational ccTLD in the world .
An example of a robot response to an attempt to register.
They also added Captcha to the domain registration form. Horror as modern. Well done. But at the same time - 4 requests per hour. Is it time for them to replace the server?
