Hi!

In my message file I get a lot of these messages:
Mar  9 20:12:40 fw /kernel: Connection attempt to UDP 213.64.164.27:1346 from
                                                                  10.0.0.1:53
Mar  9 20:12:44 fw /kernel: Connection attempt to UDP 213.64.164.27:1347 from
                                                                  10.0.0.2:53
My IPFW is set up to allow UDP port 53 both in and out.

As it is logged in vain, trying to connect to a port that is not open, then no
program or daemon has made a query. Am I correct? And if this is the case, why
are the DNS trying to connect to me for no reason?

Thanks in advance for an answer!

Best regards,
Paul
