Anyone else seeing excessive DNS requests hammering their local
forwarders this evening.  We've just taken our residence network
off-line owing to the level of port 53 traffic coming from it.  Can't
see anything in the usual places regarding this....

Things seem normal over here...

Are the residents actually making legit DNS queries or just spewing down
port 53?
