Eric, if you would have looked at the NS set for COM (instead of the NS set for .), you would have found that authoritive hosts for COM are: com. 6D IN NS A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. com. 6D IN NS G.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. com. 6D IN NS F.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. com. 6D IN NS F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. com. 6D IN NS B.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. com. 6D IN NS I.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. com. 6D IN NS E.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. com. 6D IN NS J.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. com. 6D IN NS K.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. com. 6D IN NS A.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. com. 6D IN NS H.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. com. 6D IN NS C.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. ...and their serials are: Server COM. Operator a.root-servers.net 2000041301 NSI g.root-servers.net 2000041301 DOD f.gtld-servers.net 2000041301 NSI f.root-servers.net 2000041301 ISC b.root-servers.net No answer ISI i.root-servers.net 2000041301 Sweden (Royal Inst of Tech) e.root-servers.net 2000041300 NASA j.gtld-servers.net 2000041301 NSI k.gtld-servers.net 2000041301 NSI a.gltd-servers.net 2000041301 NSI h.gtld-servers.net 2000041301 NSI c.gtld-servers.net 2000041301 NSI So in every case where NSI operates the host NS for COM, you should see that the serialization is correct. In those cases where a traditional root server still serves COM, should they get out of synch, our NOC contacts them to encourage resolution. However, as the host is not an NS operated by NSI, beyond encouraging them to fix the problem, there is little we can do. This is part of the reason for moving COM off of the traditional roots in just the same fashion as other first level delegations are managed today.
