The upcoming BIND 9.7.0 has several logging improvements, for example: 04-Dec-2009 14:46:41.020 resolver: notice: DNS format error from 216.137.38.22#53 resolving d2rdfnizen5apl.stl2.cloudfront.net/ for client 127.0.0.1#53764: invalid response 04-Dec-2009 14:46:41.060 resolver: notice: DNS

Occasionally I will look the "lame-log" on one of my BIND 9.6.1-P1 servers and find FORMERR messages. Then I do DNS queries to try to understand why the FORMERR occurred. Here is one where I am confused: 03-Dec-2009 16:07:50.722 lame-servers: info: FORMERR resolving 'd2rdfnizen5apl.stl2.cloud

Folks, remember when discussing 'nslookup' that there are not only at least three [?] major revisions in the BIND line, but also an identically-named tool on MS Windows. I'm sure the older ones don't support punycode. I wouldn't know about the MSW tool. Maybe not a problem with the specific post

Hi Joe, my "problem" is: I can't test the zone with nslookup (only when i use the puny-encoded domainname). Also other tools who uses dns to resolv the entered domainname (like ping www.umlauttestäöü.de) did'nt work. So i thought that 1. The User enters a url with Umlauts in browser 2. Brows
