Question 2.18. DNS ports
Date: Wed Jun 16 21:57:36 EDT 1999
The following table shows what TCP/UDP ports bind before 8.x DNS uses to 
send and receive queries:

   Prot Src   Dst   Use
   udp  53    53    Queries between servers (eg, recursive queries)
                    Replies to above
   tcp  53    53    Queries with long replies between servers, zone
                    transfers Replies to above
   udp  >1023 53    Client queries (sendmail, nslookup, etc ...)
   udp  53    >1023 Replies to above
   tcp  >1023 53    Client queries with long replies
   tcp  53    >1023 Replies to above

   Note: >1023 is for non-priv ports on Un*x clients. On other client
         types, the limit may be more or less.

...there must be some way to restrict the client to a fixed set of ports... 
oh well.
