They started after an update, on 2014-03-31:

What do you think? Where should I look at?
I found posts in google:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.protocols.dns.bind/fhWs_15pRB4
and the chap there reports getting the issue on Apr 1, that is, the day after me, and with the same bind version "BIND 9.9.4-rpz2.13269.14-P2 (Extended Support Version)" (mine is the official openSUSE 13.1 one).
One of the answers says:
“My guess would be that some miscreant out there created a glue AAAA record with an RDATA of "fe80::" and your network stack balks at connecting to such an abomination.”
I don't really understand what it means.
I think your named is being asked to resolve a dna name, by something connecting via ipv6, but its not prepared to honor these. Why it thinks it should hit your own name server to resolve a foreign address is beyond me, maybe it is a spam checking program which thinks your server is authoritative for foreign addresses. - -- _____________________________________ - ---This space for rent--- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) iEYEARECAAYFAlOOj1UACgkQv7M3G5+2DLIveACghnaFgY9hEemvI5h1f3Auq2Qe 0/wAoK8qjIWVzQ1bYapDyI49/XMQUulV =GxMD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
