    oh okay.. heh sorry:)

    what i found out is that by accident when i was removing one domain from my
    dns .. i only removed on master ns and didnt remove on slave.. and slave was
    trying to connect to master to get this zone.. and somehow bind consider it
    as a portscan (weird).. but after i removed this zone from slave those
    messages no longer appears..
