Situation
The following error is displayed in the DNS server screen:
error: socket.c:3215:
unexpected error:
error: internal_connect: connect() Software caused connection abort
DNS name resolution works otherwise.error: internal_connect: connect() Software caused connection abort
Resolution
Cause:
"Connection abort" corresponds to the winsock "WSAECONNABORTED (10053) Software caused connection abort", which was not mapped to a corresponding ISC/DNS error code.
Fix/Workaround:
NetWare 6.5 SP6's NAMED.NLM includes the correct error mapping thus not producing the mentioned errors.

Additional Information
Without the NAMED.NLM from NetWare 6.5 SP6, these messages can be
safely ignored as they are not known to cause any type of DNS name
resolution failure.
