Hmm. A few weeks ago I started noticing some similiar messages that I had not ever seen before: Jan 29 18:21:52 named[658]: socket.c:1100: unexpected error: Jan 29 18:21:52 named[658]: internal_send: 210.22.158.126#39254: Connection reset by peer Jan 29 18:21:53 named[658]: client 210.22.158.126#39254: error sending response: connection reset On closer examination I could see that the remote client was attempting DDNS updates to a zone that server was auth for. It started Jan 29 03:19:39 MDT and then mysteriously ended Jan 31 11:06:11 MDT which I thought was a little odd. Usually someone sticks a domain name that they like (but have no real relationship to) into their Microsoft TCP/IP stack's domain name field and it tries to do it's Active Directory update thingy forever (we have 'clark.com' which is lots of fun). So once a client starts sending us updates, it's not likely to ever stop. FWIW, only a small percentage of the updates were generating this error.... # grep -c '210.22.158.126.*denied' messages.2 1375 # grep -c socket.c messages.2 24
