We were notified that one of our servers running dnscache were 
generating a syn attack on a target dns servers.  Sure enough, when we 
looked we saw that we were sending SYN packets to these servers.  I'm 
not saying it's dnscache causing this but the pattern appears to be that 
we send a query and then right afterwards, several SYN packets to the 
same server.
