When I monitor the UDP packets sent to my Linux box, I find it is flooded
with replies from DNS servers to queries (inverse look-ups on the IP
addresses of the DNS servers listed in /etc/resolv.conf) issued from port
32512 on my machine. Does anyone know of a Linux client process that runs
from port 32512? The flood of messages starts as soon as I log on. I don't
have to start any client apps other than Terminal windows. Nothing is listed
against 32512 in /etc/services and I can't find any information on Google.

Thanks in advance
