Wow... I just checked the root servers for the list of head servers from a.root-servers.net... Anyone knows why all servers are repeated twice...

From NSLookup I got...

(root) origin = A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET mail addr = hostmaster.INTERNIC.NET serial = 1997072900 refresh = 10800 (3 hours) retry = 900 (15 mins) expire = 604800 (7 days) minimum ttl = 86400 (1 day) (root) nameserver = J.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = K.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = L.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = M.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = H.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = B.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = C.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = D.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = E.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = I.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = G.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = J.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = K.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = L.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = M.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = H.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = B.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = C.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = D.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = E.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = I.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (root) nameserver = G.ROOT-SERVERS.NET J.ROOT-SERVERS.NET internet address = 198.41.0.10 K.ROOT-SERVERS.NET internet address = 193.0.14.129 L.ROOT-SERVERS.NET internet address = 198.32.64.12 Because of the size limit of the packets, I receive only 3 IP from the query to a root server and I get the following response when starting DNS... "NOTICE : check_root: 1 root servers after query to root server < min." Not pretty... Is this a screwup again or are they getting "spoofed" ???
