Right. Apart from implementations that just can't handle funky RR types in the response -- firewalls, perhaps? see RFC 2979, especially the transparency rule -- a lot of the trouble is caused by the reply size. The code should either use EDNS0 or fall back to TCP -- and lots of folks have broken firewall configs that don't allow TCP 53, even though it's been in the spec since 1984 or thereabouts. --Steve Bellovin, http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~smb
