Subject: strange messages from BIND 8.3.3



Hello!

I've a little question for you BIND gurus :-)

Three days ago I installed BIND 8.3.3-REL on both my public DNS servers
(FreeBSD 4.6p1 platforms) replacing 8.2.3-T1B.

Since then I see many of these following messages in my logs:

Jul  2 14:56:16 viger named[13868]: invalid RR type 'NS' in additional
section (name = 'akamai.net') from [204.248.36.130].53
Jul  2 14:56:16 viger last message repeated 116 times
Jul  2 14:58:31 viger named[13868]: unrelated additional info
'dns1.microtech.co.gg' type A from [212.30.13.201].53
Jul  2 14:58:31 viger named[13868]: unrelated additional info
'dns1.microtech.co.gg' type A from [212.30.13.201].53

Both "errors" I never seen before 8.3.3. Maybe this version is more
verbose about such warnings ?
(note the 116 times , sometimes is even more)

What they mean exactly ?


Many thanks in advance for your help!
