The DNS response for wwww.opensrs.net will come from the authoritative
NS for opensrs.net - there is no way for Verisign to respond incorrectly
for third (and fourth, etc.) level domains if the NS query gets to the
2nd level NS servers properly.

nslookup wwww.opensrs.net
Server:         10.0.0.1
Address:        10.0.0.1#53

** server can't find wwww.opensrs.net: NXDOMAIN


nslookup www.opensrss.net
Server:         10.0.0.1
Address:        10.0.0.1#53

Name:   www.opensrss.net
Address: 64.94.110.11
