{more snip}

This appears to be part of a fairly sophisticated dns fingerprinting
effort that we are currently investigating. 

Could you, and anyone else that is seeing this traffic, possibly provide
packet logs and/or binary captures? 

A tcpdump filter that has been 100% effective, thus far, is:

dst port 53 and (udp[8] = 1 and (udp[12:2] > 1000 or udp[14:2] > 1000 
or udp[16:2] > 1000 or udp[18:2] > 1000 or udp[10:4] = 0))

Thanks!
