Hello everyone,
I've been seeing these syslog messages for about a week on a FreeBSD server running BIND 9.4.3-P1:

Ports 135-139 and 445 are denied by the firewall on the outside interface.

        Why do you care about what port you are sending to?  Just
        allow named to send its replies.


Ports 135-139 and 445 are blocked on the outside interface to protect the Windows networks on the inside, which use those ports, from the savage Internet.
Are you saying that it's normal for named to send replies on those ports?
Also, the server has been up for over 3 years with no problems, and these errors just started happening last week.

Andre
