  • DNS Benchmark v2 is Finished and Available!
    Guest:
    That's right. It took an entire year, but the result far more accurate and feature laden than we originally planned. The world now has a universal, multi-protocol, super-accurate, DNS resolver performance-measuring tool. This major second version is not free. But the deal is, purchase it once for $9.95 and you own it — and it's entire future — without ever being asked to pay anything more. For an overview list of features and more, please see The DNS Benchmark page at GRC. If you decide to make it your own, thanks in advance. It's a piece of work I'm proud to offer for sale. And if you should have any questions, many of the people who have been using and testing it throughout the past year often hang out here.

  • BootAble – FreeDOS boot testing freeware

    To obtain direct, low-level access to a system's mass storage drives, SpinRite runs under a GRC-customized version of FreeDOS which has been modified to add compatibility with all file systems. In order to run SpinRite it must first be possible to boot FreeDOS.

    GRC's “BootAble” freeware allows anyone to easily create BIOS-bootable media in order to workout and confirm the details of getting a machine to boot FreeDOS through a BIOS. Once the means of doing that has been determined, the media created by SpinRite can be booted and run in the same way.

    The participants here, who have taken the time to share their knowledge and experience, their successes and some frustrations with booting their computers into FreeDOS, have created a valuable knowledgebase which will benefit everyone who follows.

    You may click on the image to the right to obtain your own copy of BootAble. Then use the knowledge and experience documented here to boot your computer(s) into FreeDOS. And please do not hesitate to ask questions – nowhere else can better answers be found.

    (You may permanently close this reminder with the 'X' in the upper right.)

Periodically, I monitor IP packets on my WAN interface and have noticed a 'chatty' TCP stream between my desktop mac and 199.232.193.91 which I don't recall seeing previously. There seems to be a correlation betwen starting Bitwarden password manager and the traffic. Bitwarden don't list the IP's they use, but say to identify their servers by domain name. A reverse DNS lookup of that IP does not return a result. A whois reports its address block is a owned by "Fastly, Inc.".

I'm trying to understand whether I have a problem or whether it is infact a genuine Bitwarden server IP. I've put this question to Bitwarden but haven't yet had a response. Just wondering if anyone here sees similar traffic or knows whether it is a genuine Bitwarden server?

Thanks
Andy

Bitwarden have confirmed that Fastly is one of their hosting providers so, I'm going to assume this traffic is ok.
