---end quoted text---

my address is "xxx" and 192.43..... is an expamle address of dns server.

I know that dns use an udp protocol but is it normal to have these connection
attempts??

Im running only local dnscache (from djbdns) on my box. I don have any dnsserver. 
I have plenty of such connections from dns servers, and i turned of sysctl
net.inet.udp.log_in_vain=0
because this starts to annoy me :(
