[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, I've made the changes to rule 00618 as you've suggested, but now I get a different error: # dig .ns @a.root-servers.net ; <<>> DiG 8.3 <<>> .ns @a.root-servers.net ; (1 server found) ;; res_nmkquery: buffer too small # dig .ns @b.root-servers.net ; <<>> DiG 8.3 <<>> .ns @b.root-servers.net ; (1 server found) ;; res_nmkquery: buffer too small # I'll not even pretend to know what that means.., Thanks for the pointer to what I missed out in the rule.
