Thanks so much, good to have a cisco person on the list.

The exact error message I get is:

Feb 16 13:50:19 209.10.40.50 Feb 16 2000 13:44:03: %PIX-2-106007: Deny
inbound UDP from 209.10.34.55/15661 to 10.60.2.110/2162 due to DNS
Response 

Which I don't seem to understand why it's doing this. 209.10.34.55 is our
secondary at our hosting facility.  10.60.2.110 is our internal NAT
address for our nameserver.

I'm considering it, but I bet it's a simple misconfiguration.

The PIX always looks like it's mid-conversion from PIX to an IOS, but then
again it's all a religious battle. Some people think the PIX should be
less like IOS because it's not a router. Same people complained when the
Catalysts started using IOS too. *shrug*

Thanks for the help.
