Bind errors

[Gary Nichols]

I'll bet you a 6" stuffed Tux penguin that it was indeed those Win2k boxen.
(I had this exact same scenerio happen to me when I was beta-testing win2k
pro a year or so ago).

OK, here is what I have done. I have blocked access to the nameserver
from my fw outside int. Therefore, anything coming from the outside
ip of my fw is not allowed to access the nameserver(s). Transfers
have already been restricted to just the master/slaves.

I beleive the last guy might have been on to something: My
assistant rolled out a couple of Win2K boxes. There was a check
box that statess "Register this connections address in DNS".

Without tailing some logs at the moment, it sounds like
this might be my culprit.  Does anyone aggree?
