Watch it: Multiple DNS implementations vulnerable to cache poisoning

[Ken A]

This nice little tool was posted to the dns operations list.
Cut and paste this into your linux or BSD (Mac) to check your configured 
DNS resolver for cache poisoning vulnerability.

dig +short porttest.dns-oarc.net TXT

In windows you can use nslookup
 > nslookup
 > set type=txt
 > porttest.dns-oarc.net

Might be good to know how spoofable the DNS you are using is!
