It just seems to be repeating over and over and over again. It looks like it just keeps doing DNS queries for the host it's trying to scan.
Perhaps the problem lies with DNS then. Configure the client to disable reverse lookups (ie, set "reverse_lookup = no" in the config file) and try again.
recvfrom(7, ">-\205\203\0\1\0\0\0\1\0\0\7secmon1\6DOMAIN\3com\0"...,
1024, 0, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(53),
sin_addr=inet_addr("10.NETWORK.4")}, [16]) = 105
Hmm, I can't decipher this. It looks like the opcode is 9 and the rcode is 11, neither of which seems to be in use yet. Does dig reveal anything interesting when trying to lookup this particular hostname? George -- theall@tifaware.com
