That is not what I see when I query one of the major name servers. I would guess your server is configured differently...
Yes, know it's configured differently. On purpose. I have configured it _not_ to waste time answering stupid questions from random bots. If you want to know the address of isc.org, ask a major name server. My server is for answering questions about _my_ names. It needs to answer queries about keithdiane.us and free-comp-shop.com, for which it is authoritative, which means the major name servers get their info about those names from _here_. I would like to configure it to totally ignore such stupid requests, instead it seems to be answering with the best data it has in its cache. That turns out to be the most verbose yet useless information imaginable---a list of all the root name servers on the internet! -- Keith PS: Don't use my list. It's probably obsolete.
