I'm getting quite a few messages in my logs from itables. There seems to be a 
problem with packets coming from the primary DNS (10.1.1.5). The messages look 
like this (this is output from logwatch):

    From 10.1.1.5 - 334 packets
       To 10.1.5.93 - 334 packets
          Service: 32972 (udp/32972) (INPUT packet died:,eth0,none) - 1 packet
          Service: 32973 (udp/32973) (INPUT packet died:,eth0,none) - 1 packet
          Service: 32974 (udp/32974) (INPUT packet died:,eth0,none) - 1 packet
          Service: 33063 (udp/33063) (INPUT packet died:,eth0,none) - 1 packet
          Service: 33112 (udp/33112) (INPUT packet died:,eth0,none) - 1 packet

I *believe* that dns is working properly on this box (10.1.5.93). For example, 
reverse lookups work when I ssh into it. Could someone tell me why I'm getting 
these messages? Is the DNS misconfigured?

Oh, I'm running RHEL ES4 on this box. Don't know what the DNS box is running.

Thanks!
