Here is the situation, I run bind as a root nameserver and all appears =
to be
operating normally (no apparent problems).  But, log_in_vain is =
reporting to
messages a few times per second that port 53 is being queried and =
nothing
"appears" to be listing on it. I monitored my forwarders ip addresses =
and
they reply fine.

I found a reference to search for "bind timeout problem", but could find
nothing that looked like any help.

Any ideas?

Couple of stats:
FreeBSD 4.10
BIND 8.3.7-REL
using 2 forwarders
127.0.0.1 in resolve.conf
log_in_vain=3D"YES" in rc.conf
allow all from any to any via lo0 in ipfw
