[Dxspider-support] Node verification

[Kin]

Mike,

That is unfeasible. 
It would first require the cooperation of the vast majority of sysops, and
even then, the logs would have to be centralised for a time domain analysis.
It can't be done.
If it is easier to update the nodes and knowing the problems we have, only
35% of the spiders have been updated. This is unacceptable.

I think I have a simple way to verify a node connection from hijacking. 
If every node that generates spots must have a DNS address, checking the DNS
IP to the IP of the connecting node when it connects would be a much simpler
way of verifying a node without changing network protocols or even requiring
passwords.

THAT was the equation. EXISTENCE!... SURVIVAL... must cancel out... 
programming!
