Disabling things so the log messages stop and you can pretend all the brokenness has magically gone away is indeed the easiest solution sometimes. It's rarely a good one, particularly for the long term. Anyway, the OP actually uses IPv6 on his network, so this is pretty much akin to suggesting that he turn off his computer to keep people from bothering it. The log messages are from his DNS server; he uses it for resolving and some local stuff; the log entries are the result of queries from random machines being rejected; random machines are doing that since at least one of his parent nameservers is handing out the IPv6 address of his server against his wishes; eventually he'll realize this is actually the case; and maybe he'll be able to convince whomever runs the parent nameserver(s) to update the records for his zone. (Just to cover the rest of your questions. :-) --Jon Radel --------------ms040806080100060607070300 Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature; name="smime.p7s" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="smime.p7s" Content-Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature MIAGCSqGSIb3DQEHAqCAMIACAQExCzAJBgUrDgMCGgUAMIAGCSqGSIb3DQEHAQAAoIIJMTCC AvMwggJcoAMCAQICEG2TkfF/93Sx9LCftry1D3YwDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEFBQAwYjELMAkGA1UE BhMCWkExJTAjBgNVBAoTHFRoYXd0ZSBDb25zdWx0aW5nIChQdHkpIEx0ZC4xLDAqBgNVBAMT I1RoYXd0ZSBQZXJzb25hbCBGcmVlbWFpbCBJc3N1aW5nIENBMB4XDTA4MDMyNDE2NTkyMVoX DTA5MDMyNDE2NTkyMVowXjEOMAwGA1UEBBMFUmFkZWwxEzARBgNVBCoTCkpvbiBUaG9tYXMx GTAXBgNVBAMTEEpvbiBUaG9tYXMgUmFkZWwxHDAaBgkqhkiG9w0BCQEWDWpvbkByYWRlbC5j b20wggEiMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUAA4IBDwAwggEKAoIBAQDPdCxQufreHHDAI9YN2axx87Rf 0TK1PYFMlJHi4y1ebdAMPqR6M44bz+3m8YnKn1bmIf7dWyisWyAIQYCOhW/2r66o4MdF9qJ9 z5uhMy+28zaJP/Glg64C3WPM0VfveCgvu+ApEyf2JDbjc/hUomw8KpppgOcn1wX6PZGbhHVv eAvDTWJ0ugqo08Ny6GR0bsGvePmxdWSQq+0aGTHqA1I2EozJBZ8W5xlUtKe22j56i1Uw1ujk Rlosdu2PTs8QOY1OUHuLPnEV9EWtYF7g6bXDUDsJxypXZy9qTipPplYXjdWgkLVRvezri+BN kgin8UKhKLQ99vS25zrMFKu80g31AgMBAAGjKjAoMBgGA1UdEQQRMA+BDWpvbkByYWRlbC5j b20wDAYDVR0TAQH/BAIwADANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFAAOBgQAR4u9o4CFvztyo0sZb3tCQIWYb 5U4jW9da3goVwWIkMz+qeCb2kiTQfsSmOdF9YJ8VTRdYW0l0fQbqL5JikVhaYeX85cpqZ3iA /PPJpfPtJw8g5jJOAROVAvxydMZXQYxyIBMV4HNG3qir44YnyfmJXkBtRFYWdxBc7bQpoZSZ jzCCAvMwggJcoAMCAQICEG2TkfF/93Sx9LCftry1D3YwDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEFBQAwYjELMAkG A1UEBhMCWkExJTAjBgNVBAoTHFRoYXd0ZSBDb25zdWx0aW5nIChQdHkpIEx0ZC4xLDAqBgNV BAMTI1RoYXd0ZSBQZXJzb25hbCBGcmVlbWFpbCBJc3N1aW5nIENBMB4XDTA4MDMyNDE2NTky MVoXDTA5MDMyNDE2NTkyMVowXjEOMAwGA1UEBBMFUmFkZWwxEzARBgNVBCoTCkpvbiBUaG9t YXMxGTAXBgNVBAMTEEpvbiBUaG9tYXMgUmFkZWwxHDAaBgkqhkiG9w0BCQEWDWpvbkByYWRl bC5jb20wggEiMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUAA4IBDwAwggEKAoIBAQDPdCxQufreHHDAI9YN2axx 87Rf0TK1PYFMlJHi4y1ebdAMPqR6M44bz+3m8YnKn1bmIf7dWyisWyAIQYCOhW/2r66o4MdF 9qJ9z5uhMy+28zaJP/Glg64C3WPM0VfveCgvu+ApEyf2JDbjc/hUomw8KpppgOcn1wX6PZGb hHVveAvDTWJ0ugqo08Ny6GR0bsGvePmxdWSQq+0aGTHqA1I2EozJBZ8W5xlUtKe22j56i1Uw 1ujkRlosdu2PTs8QOY1OUHuLPnEV9EWtYF7g6bXDUDsJxypXZy9qTipPplYXjdWgkLVRvezr i+BNkgin8UKhKLQ99vS25zrMFKu80g31AgMBAAGjKjAoMBgGA1UdEQQRMA+BDWpvbkByYWRl bC5jb20wDAYDVR0TAQH/BAIwADANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFAAOBgQAR4u9o4CFvztyo0sZb3tCQ IWYb5U4jW9da3goVwWIkMz+qeCb2kiTQfsSmOdF9YJ8VTRdYW0l0fQbqL5JikVhaYeX85cpq Z3iA/PPJpfPtJw8g5jJOAROVAvxydMZXQYxyIBMV4HNG3qir44YnyfmJXkBtRFYWdxBc7bQp oZSZjzCCAz8wggKooAMCAQICAQ0wDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEFBQAwgdExCzAJBgNVBAYTAlpBMRUw EwYDVQQIEwxXZXN0ZXJuIENhcGUxEjAQBgNVBAcTCUNhcGUgVG93bjEaMBgGA1UEChMRVGhh d3RlIENvbnN1bHRpbmcxKDAmBgNVBAsTH0NlcnRpZmljYXRpb24gU2VydmljZXMgRGl2aXNp b24xJDAiBgNVBAMTG1RoYXd0ZSBQZXJzb25hbCBGcmVlbWFpbCBDQTErMCkGCSqGSIb3DQEJ ARYccGVyc29uYWwtZnJlZW1haWxAdGhhd3RlLmNvbTAeFw0wMzA3MTcwMDAwMDBaFw0xMzA3 MTYyMzU5NTlaMGIxCzAJBgNVBAYTAlpBMSUwIwYDVQQKExxUaGF3dGUgQ29uc3VsdGluZyAo UHR5KSBMdGQuMSwwKgYDVQQDEyNUaGF3dGUgUGVyc29uYWwgRnJlZW1haWwgSXNzdWluZyBD QTCBnzANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAAOBjQAwgYkCgYEAxKY8VXNV+065yplaHmjAdQRwnd/p/6Me 7L3N9VvyGna9fww6YfK/Uc4B1OVQCjDXAmNaLIkVcI7dyfArhVqqP3FWy688Cwfn8R+RNiQq E88r1fOCdz0Dviv+uxg+B79AgAJk16emu59l0cUqVIUPSAR/p7bRPGEEQB5kGXJgt/sCAwEA AaOBlDCBkTASBgNVHRMBAf8ECDAGAQH/AgEAMEMGA1UdHwQ8MDowOKA2oDSGMmh0dHA6Ly9j cmwudGhhd3RlLmNvbS9UaGF3dGVQZXJzb25hbEZyZWVtYWlsQ0EuY3JsMAsGA1UdDwQEAwIB BjApBgNVHREEIjAgpB4wHDEaMBgGA1UEAxMRUHJpdmF0ZUxhYmVsMi0xMzgwDQYJKoZIhvcN AQEFBQADgYEASIzRUIPqCy7MDaNmrGcPf6+svsIXoUOWlJ1/TCG4+DYfqi2fNi/A9BxQIJNw PP2t4WFiw9k6GX6EsZkbAMUaC4J0niVQlGLH2ydxVyWN3amcOY6MIE9lX5Xa9/eH1sYITq72 6jTlEBpbNU1341YheILcIRk13iSx0x1G/11fZU8xggNkMIIDYAIBATB2MGIxCzAJBgNVBAYT AlpBMSUwIwYDVQQKExxUaGF3dGUgQ29uc3VsdGluZyAoUHR5KSBMdGQuMSwwKgYDVQQDEyNU aGF3dGUgUGVyc29uYWwgRnJlZW1haWwgSXNzdWluZyBDQQIQbZOR8X/3dLH0sJ+2vLUPdjAJ BgUrDgMCGgUAoIIBwzAYBgkqhkiG9w0BCQMxCwYJKoZIhvcNAQcBMBwGCSqGSIb3DQEJBTEP Fw0wODA2MTExNDEzNDdaMCMGCSqGSIb3DQEJBDEWBBTJB+Qy4rNWnjcJTPtpJyjVC7kGlDBS BgkqhkiG9w0BCQ8xRTBDMAoGCCqGSIb3DQMHMA4GCCqGSIb3DQMCAgIAgDANBggqhkiG9w0D AgIBQDAHBgUrDgMCBzANBggqhkiG9w0DAgIBKDCBhQYJKwYBBAGCNxAEMXgwdjBiMQswCQYD VQQGEwJaQTElMCMGA1UEChMcVGhhd3RlIENvbnN1bHRpbmcgKFB0eSkgTHRkLjEsMCoGA1UE AxMjVGhhd3RlIFBlcnNvbmFsIEZyZWVtYWlsIElzc3VpbmcgQ0ECEG2TkfF/93Sx9LCftry1 D3YwgYcGCyqGSIb3DQEJEAILMXigdjBiMQswCQYDVQQGEwJaQTElMCMGA1UEChMcVGhhd3Rl IENvbnN1bHRpbmcgKFB0eSkgTHRkLjEsMCoGA1UEAxMjVGhhd3RlIFBlcnNvbmFsIEZyZWVt YWlsIElzc3VpbmcgQ0ECEG2TkfF/93Sx9LCftry1D3YwDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEBBQAEggEAGVJr aZIzvl0/D3joRXtl/5RK8dlLBsqN8xgzdnlHaJ+tH1hZtb3cebb3CdkU78ECWdex3TVtC6N8 b9LpZ/nQZddCGn6wfoPR2Cdx7XyU4dV0RY8IPDZcjxXjMgpQkqzdRgoLoAhDPFn2DW0YPN6m qiI2zJaczN0h8hpvQ+Uq4i1mozsavM2oTNuu5YPjA5MQMFP8towzY0d6JGpWy3iRMY4v5qu3 v5e4yeuRlMNYrlNJn+OIPQc6awTKTyuiK556YXZy9GDrtiTmroxOhY1gg4rDrg/ctMO7QX2d 52qyuUg9Oc3pp/dcRMoLg2o6o+Bwz9IN/WOrLYSj0vbXuilCNwAAAAAAAA== --------------ms040806080100060607070300--
