bad TCP-based DNS message

[Dan Ackermann]

Hi all,
Found in eventlog Warning 5502 several times a day.
"DNS server received a bad TCP-based DNS message from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Packed is rejected or ignored."
IP Addr. is moste of the time one of our own servers.

Turning on logging does not realy help. Logfile shows only the same
errortext as in eventlog. :-(
Does any1 knows what could cause the problem ??

Any help is highly appreciated.
TIA

Is the server (the source of the "BAD" DNS message) a DHCP server? Where
I've seen this errors, this is usually the case. I remember reading a Q
article that linked both together and the suggestion was to ignore the
error. Or, maybe it's in my head
