Are you sure that mysql server listens on port 53? Use port where
mysqld listens, not where named listens. If you're using virtual
machine I think venet0:0 is virtual interface (network bridge).
tcpdump has sometimes problem with that. Please use physical interface
on where is that virtual one created (eth0 etc..)

Because you specified bad port.

It should exist but I don't know it because I don't work with mysql.
