Sure, I did that already. And I also talked to the maintainer of
ns*.he.net, i.e. this one:

! > The f.1.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa zone (@216.66.80.18) responds with NXDOMAIN to queries for any QTYPE for QNAME f.1.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa

And they seem to think, there is nothing wrong with that, because
nobody ever has complained about that.


Now I am really wondering: why do I, an unemployed old guy just
running his own computer, suddenly find myself in between a root

In other words: why do You guys no longer talk to each other?
