G'day Learned ones,
		every now and then I peruse the syslog files to see what is happening
on our system. Occassionally I come across the following entries and I
would like someone to explain to me what they mean and more to the
point, is anything broken?

  1.  named[74]: recvfrom: Connection refused

  2.  tcplog: auth connection attempt from (someplace)

  3.  named[74]: Lame delegation to (someplace)



Thanks in advance, Dave.
