1038 UDP is used by BIND, and by one of the sundry lock RPCs in NFS.

The deal here is probably Dell OMI, a management interface.  Kurt Sifried
has this documented on his ports list at sifried.org

Are your machines Dell?  I would bet that killing RPC is making the OMI
agent go nutty, and broadcast.  The relevant executable is win32sl.exe.
