NS_RESP TCP Truncated Errorr

[Mark.Andrews at nominum.com]

	You got an answer that was too large to fit into a DNS/TCP
	answer, i.e. it was bigger than 64k or the nameserver had
	a small TCP send buffer.

	The usual cause is a web host provider that doesn't know
	what they are doing by adding PTR records for all the virtual
	sites hosted on one IP address.
