Bogus DNS traffic

  I'm seeing random UDP packets to port 53 of random
internal IP addresses.  The source IP addresses are
external, all over the map, although the one example
I've gotten a good capture of bore the source MAC
address of an internal server.  (Whatever is spoofing
the IP address *could* be spoofing the MAC address, but
that would still indicate an origin inside our network....)

  Does anyone recognize this?
