	This is an out-of-date version.  I suggest that you upgrade to at 
least 9.1.2-REL or perhaps the latest release candidate for 9.1.3.

	Nope.  Which domains within .gov are you having problems 
reaching?  Myself, I'm having problems reaching some of the 
nameservers for whitehouse.gov (eop1.eop.gov and eop2.eop.gov), but 
the others are reachable (dnsauth1.sys.gtei.net, 
dnsauth2.sys.gtei.net, and dnsauth3.sys.gtei.net).  The nameservers 
for nic.gov seem to be fine, too.
