Hi

Our school network relies on a local caching nameserver running on FreeBSD
4.4STABLE and BIND 8.2.4 / DHCP v3.0 with dynamic updates (successfully?)
running.

Browsing the message log on the box reveals heaps of messages of the
following ilk...

Jan 11 15:35:03 sjrouter dhcpd: if IN A SJSG062M.st-james.net domain doesn't
exist add 345600 IN A SJSG062M.st-james.net 10.0.1.2 add 345600 IN TXT
SJSG062M.st-james.net "3163cb3d963493c8c717b85bfc3394c9dd": domain already
exists.
Jan 11 15:35:03 sjrouter named[570]: error processing update packet
(NXRRSET) id 19267 from [10.0.0.200].1161

and others refering to (YXDOMAIN)

The IP 10.0.0.200 refers to the local FreeBSD box (on its internal subnet
NIC). This IP is allowed to make updates in the named.conf and seems to
suceed.

The messages arrive in force when wireless WinME clients connect, but occur
regularly with static Win2k workstations also.

Are these messages of concern?

Please advise with any ideas/pointers to relevant documentation (I've
followed O'Reilly's DNS and BIND handbook and the DHCPD man pages in setting
up DDNS.)
