Ok. Let try do this:

# host 3com.com



I'm get:

3com.com has address 192.136.32.249
3com.com mail is handled (pri=20) by topaz.3com.com
3com.com mail is handled (pri=10) by zircon.3com.com

What about you? ))


for exmaple:

# nslookup 3com.com ns.optus.net.au
Server: ns.optus.net.au
Address: 61.88.88.88

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: 3com.com
Address: 192.136.32.249


# named.version ns.optus.net.au|grep CHAOS
;; version.bind, type = TXT, class = CHAOS
version.bind. 0S CHAOS TXT "9.1.3"


I think, that RFC-1035 was obsolete?
