Maybe I'm too tired to sort this out, but I don't get the point:
- if the product connects to port 7, my bind won't see it.
- if the product connects to port 53, why does bind complain that this
  is NOT a query socket?

(in depth comments about the "intelligence" behind measuring the latency
 of a host by measuring the latency to one of the auth dns servers omitted)
