We have a similar problem, if anyone can help. We get thousands of
messages:

recvfrom gave error, ignoring: No error

Pdns just eats up the memory and finally crashes. Running versions 2.9.6
for Windows. Im attaching our conf file if anyone has a similar problem
or knows of a solution.

Thanks.

Greetings,

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What does this mean ?

- recvfrom gave error, ignoring: Connection refused
	I saw this one in the faq, but I'm only using one ip and one
interface and I 
have specified local-address=

- Received an answer (non-query) packet from 196.41.14.214, dropping
	Seems like something is incorrectly configured, what could be
causing this.

- Error sending reply with sendto (socket=4): Connection refused
	wtf ?
- Recursive query for remote 209.203.41.110 with internal id 14 was not 
answered by backend within timeout, reusing id
	Is there anyway I can increase this ? (or would that be stupid)

Nothing serious I guess. I thought I would keep the list moving a bit.

e.
