Your nameserver appears to be returning bad > data, though curiously the first answer was the right one in this case. No, I don't think so... The address returned is the same as in the first query; the answer is correct. I believe the reason the data is different is because the first query showed authoritative data that the name server looked up, whereas the second query returned non-authoritative data that the name server had cached. There seems to be nothing wrong with this -- the client got the same address in both cases. -- Derek D. Martin http://www.pizzashack.org/ GPG Key ID: 0x81CFE75D
