This means that your server performed this query and got a truncated
response, because the result didn't fit in a 500-byte UDP packet.  So it
switched to TCP and tried again, yet the server set the "truncated" flag
this time as well.  I've seen this happen when an address has several
hundred PTR records.

You read your news using deja.com -- don't you know how to use its search
engine so that you don't have to ask a question that has been asked before?
