Hi,
yesterday we tested the beta version bind-9.4.3b2 and had some problems,
so we had to switch back to the formerly used (insecure) version 9.4.2.
The server is running under 'Linux 2.6.16.13-4-bigsmp athlon GNU/Linux'
and ulimit -n shows '1024', fs.file-max was set up to 768000 for testing.
In named.conf, recursive-clients is set to 5000.
rndc status shows
number of zones: 210
debug level: 0
xfers running: 0
xfers deferred: 0
soa queries in progress: 0
query logging is ON
recursive clients: 2195/4900/5000
tcp clients: 0/100
server is up and running
The query rate is between 7.000 and 12.000 queries/sec.
When running 9.4.3b2 we found in the bind log a lot of messages as follows

netstat shows >900 UDP connections in state ESTABLISHED, but tcpdump
doesn't show any traffic on the watched connections.
Can someone give me a hint what's wrong and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
