I apologize beforehand for possible multiple copies. Two comments: 1) The data is most peculiar since nowhere that I could find are X, Y and Z identified. If they are somewhere I couldn't find it. Is there a reason to keep them obscured? 2) dig 8.3 is available for Windows XP. Just pick up the BIND8.3.3Tools.zip kit from the ISC Web site. You need dig.exe and libbind.dll in the same place or libbind.dll in the PATH. It's better to use the same tool for all tests. Danny
