|
|
I don't use predefined rules. I created this rule in advanced packet filter rules:
OUTGOING direction
LOCAL PORTS: 1024-4999
REMOTE PORT: 53
PROTOCOL: UDP
IP: my ISP domain name servers DNS
With this new KPF version sometimes Internet Explorer wants to use local port greater than 4999 and remote port 53 to my ISP domain name server why? Is it a bug of this new version?

So, is it IE or svchost?
Well, svchost has the right to use anything between 1025 and 65535. You've created a wrong rule.

I use the DNS rules from the well known and tested BZ rules for KPF 2.x, which are 1024-5000, UDP 53, my ISP, "both" ways. Still works fine here, but could depend on your setup/ISP.

KPF prompted me for an outgoing connection with local port 1124, but my rules have been configured for 1024-4999. IE and all others windows applications resolve the DNS using svchost but with the lastest KPF build sometimes the DSN rules seem not working. I'm pretty sure.

I think that the bug is due IE predefined rule created by the latest KPF build, I can't remove that rule! But I set that IE rule as ASK, because I configured IE using advanced packet filter rule. May be advanced packet filter rule is in conflit with IE predefined rule and or svchost? I think this is a bug.

My packet rules for DNS are for "any application". On mine, svchost.exe is only used for windows updates. All other applications request there own DNS access including IE. I have DNS client off (caching) for my Hosts file to work, this is probably why.
"KPF prompted me for an outgoing connection with local port 1124"
- What application is actually asking for this access? If its Internet Explorer, then add that to your rule or change to "any application" like me.

All Windows XP applications use svchost.exe to resolve IP addresses using my ISP domanin name servers, in fact it's since many years I use KPF4 and I have create a rule for svchost and every applications resolve own address using that rule without problems. But only with this latest KPF build sometimes, maybe for a bug, I see that IE doesn't use svchost (this happens only 1 time and not every day, but this happens!) and so KPF prompt me.
