Hi,

Actually some keys rollovers activities were initiated:

dig @ns1.coza.net.za  ke  dnskey  +multi |grep  KSK

                                ) ; KSK; alg = RSASHA1; key id = 30031
                                ) ; KSK; alg = RSASHA1; key id = 13246
                                ) ; revoked KSK; alg = RSASHA1; key id = 37599


The KSK, id 37471, which had DS in root zone, disappeared from the .ke zone, 
and new KSKs, DS  were not uploaded in root zone causing the validation 
failure. 

ke.                     86400   IN      DS      37471 5 1 
05BEACA628DC8A283B5C88612A0883AB862D1CBB


First action taken by KENIC was to contact IANA to  remove the .ke DS from root 
zone.

Meanwhile, options to restore the chain of trust  had been evaluated:

1- update DS in root zone to match the new KSKs
2- restore the old key, id= 37471

1) was not long an option, as a process has been triggered at IANA to remove 
the DS from root zone. 2) was executed and finally, the IANA's process has been 
completed.


Hope this helps

--Alain
