The other interesting thing I noticed about the attack packets, is that
the source port and transaction ID are transposed. This could be used to
finger print the abusive packets. Here's a few lines from our TinyDNS
log (domain names removed and time-codes converted to a reader friendly
format):

The three sets of hex separated by colons represent Source IP:Source
Port:Transaction ID (tinydns log file format is explained here:
http://www.dqd.com/~mayoff/notes/djbdns/tinydns-log.html )

Looking at the last line for example shows: source port: c6dfand its
inverse ID: dfc6

Anyone else seeing this behaviour in their logs?

Nice observation - same here. Is there any software known for such a behavior?

Klaus
