[Handle-info] Stamping out UDP [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

["Chadwick, Philip" <Philip.Chadwick@environment.gov.au>]

Hi,

In config.dct, I have:

  "no_udp_resolution" = "yes"

This does not stop the local handle server contacting global handle
servers to query the naming authority using UDP, e.g.

$ echo "DELETE 10717/invalidhandle\n" >batch.16279
$ java net.handle.apps.batch.GenericBatch batch.16279 log.16279
Batch(batch.16279) process started ...
  sending HDL-UDP request (version=2.2; oc=1; rc=0; snId=0 caCrt noAuth
    expires:Wed Sep 01 01:22:08 EST 2010 0.NA/10717 [HS_SITE, HS_SERV,
    HS_NAMESPACE, ] [ ]) to 38.100.138.131:2641

It contacts 4 external handle servers each of 3 times with UDP packets
that will never escape our firewall.

Then it sends HDL-TCP request, and gets a response which causes it to
talk to itself.

Is there any way of stopping the handle server from using UDP
completely?

[I tried removing all reference to UDP in config.dct, to no avail.]

Thanks,
