Not quite. The answer contained a CNAME for which there was not
a record with that owner name in *this* answer. This could be
due to any of three conditions.
1. The server didn't have the record the cname was pointing to
and this was a non-recursive query.
2. The name was valid but there were no records of this type.
3. The name does not exist.
