Hi Everyone,

I recently had a recursive server running BIND 9.9.4 on FreeBSD 9.2 appear to 
wedge and stop responding to clients. I had a flurry of these errors on the 
console:

sonewconn: pcb 0xfffffe007211d930: Listen queue overflow: 16 already in queue 
awaiting acceptance

I couldn't trace that directly back to the named process by the time I looked 
at it, but I suspect that's what it was since it's really the only thing this 
machine is used for and it stopped working. It seems to have oddly become 
unstuck when I logged into the machine and started looking around. I never 
restarted named. Everything else on the server was running normally from what I 
could tell and no other errors existed that I could find. Unfortunately my logs 
rolled over too fast to check if named had logged anything else interesting.

Has anyone come across this before and know how to prevent or correct this 
properly?

Thanks!
