You seem to have restricted your named to which adresses it wants to =
answer queries to.

Then an old customer of yours are trying to use your nameserver, but =
isn't allowed to. No worry.

If you get messages regarding somebody trying to _update_ your dns, then =
you need to start worrying...

I once had this, it was because some NT was thinking it was =
authoritative over a domain of ours, which it wasn't. They had just used =
a domainname which were their compamy name for their internal network, =
and never bothered to check if it was taken, when they got online.
