You're seeing a fair number of bogus replies. This can sometimes be caused by a malfunctioning (possibly overloaded) router, or by overloading Open Transport on the server, and the same condition can also cause Open Transport to fail. This could be causing your crash. It could also cause the extra DNS reply logged by your mail server. >May 15 03:27:32 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.64.222:53 >May 15 03:27:33 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.144.222:53 >May 15 03:27:33 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.144.222:53 >May 15 03:27:33 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.1.222:53 >May 15 03:27:33 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.1.222:53 >May 15 03:27:33 Lame delegation for "ns1.zptc.co.zw." from >"194.133.122.47:53" >May 15 03:27:33 Lame delegation for "ns2.zptc.co.zw." from >"194.133.122.47:53" >May 15 03:27:33 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.64.222:53 >May 15 03:27:34 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.144.222:53 >May 15 03:27:34 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.64.222:53 >May 15 03:27:34 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.144.222:53 >May 15 03:27:34 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.1.222:53 >May 15 03:27:34 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.1.222:53 >May 15 03:27:35 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.64.222:53 >May 15 03:27:35 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.64.222:53 >May 15 03:27:35 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.144.222:53 >May 15 03:27:35 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.1.222:53 >May 15 03:27:35 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.144.222:53 >May 15 03:27:35 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.64.222:53 >May 15 03:27:35 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.1.222:53 >May 15 03:27:36 Dropping bogus reply from 204.59.64.222:53 >May 15 03:27:50 Lame delegation for "36.154.204.137.in-addr.arpa." from >"137.204.174.6:53" > >May 16 13:45:23 Server starting > > >Another question I have is: Why do I get lame delegations from the root >servers?
