Thanks Matt,
I'm familiar with the various options and how to set access to my name servers and I guess what's happening is essentially the default behaviour...Although I can't think of any reason why these IP's should be asking my servers for anything...As the error messages are not very verbose I finding hard to track down what's going on. Any ideas on how to find out what the servers are asking for?

Someone is trying to use your DNS server and they are not allowed to. If you want these hosts to your DNS add:


allow-query { 217.148.39.3; 217.148.39.4;};

into your named.conf. Otherwise this is normal behavoir because you are not allowing them to query your DNS. If you want your DNS to be used by anyone add:

allow-query { any; };

You may also want to only allow queries for certain zones, if so put this allow statement in your zone section of named.conf file.
