  There's a res.h file in the nslookup source directory which defines
MAXADDRS to 35 (at least that's the value in the BIND 8.2.2-p5 release).
You could try changing that and recompiling nslookup, but for all
I know, that limit might exist somewhere in the resolver library as
well. Do you really have a name with that many records?

Another thing to try is to use "dig" instead of nslookup.
