Hello:

I get messages like the following in my syslog all the time:

Jan 20 09:00:40 <kern.info> localhost /kernel: Connection attempt to UDP 192.168.0.1:1990 from 192.168.0.1:53
Jan 20 09:02:48 <kern.info> localhost /kernel: Connection attempt to UDP 192.168.0.1:2052 from 192.168.0.1:53
Jan 20 09:02:53 <kern.info> localhost /kernel: Connection attempt to UDP 192.168.0.1:2053 from 192.168.0.1:53
Jan 20 09:03:03 <kern.info> localhost /kernel: Connection attempt to UDP 192.168.0.1:2054 from 192.168.0.1:53
Jan 20 09:03:37 <kern.info> localhost /kernel: Connection attempt to UDP 192.168.0.1:2055 from 192.168.0.1:53

I'm (trying to :) run a cache-only nameserver, and it seems to work,
albeit with the above messages getting generated/logged all the time.

OS: FreeBSD-stable as of 15 January 2004
BIND version: 8.3.7-REL
log_in_vain is set to "1" in /etc/rc.conf.
"allow-query { 127.0.0.1; 192.168.0.0/16; };" in named.conf.

I'd like to fix this but so far haven't found the answer in the
various FMs to RT. :) (the Cricket Book, 3rd ed & the manpages)

Any ideas?  FAQ/documentation/howto pointers are very welcome.

Thanks,

-kc
