Thanks. Including the Authority Section in a response is optional (unless it's a delegation or negative response). If you ask them explicitly for the NS records they show it: $ dig @8.8.8.8 -x 23.235.75 ns ;; ANSWER SECTION: 75.235.23.in-addr.arpa. 21600 IN NS ns2.qcislands.net. 75.235.23.in-addr.arpa. 21600 IN NS ns.qcislands.net. -- Barry Margolin Arlington, MA _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
