With all (un)due respect, your ISP is probably full of crap. Your tcpdumps

someplace. If the server is not running any firewall as you say, then the
only other logical place is at the border router.

Does DNS resolve names through UDP? Would that explain why I can't telnet
to port 53 on the DNS servers,yet still get name resolutions? Am I wrong conceptually
on how DNS works?
Thanks Elam
