Hi,

I have seen this on Solaris 10 with 9.4.1 also,

general: critical: adb.c:503: INSIST((rdtype == ((dns_rdatatype_t)dns_rdatatype_a)) || (rdtype == ((dns_rdatatype_t)dns_rdatatype_aaaa))) failed
general: critical: exiting (due to assertion failure)


Bind 9.4.1
Solaris 10 x86

( also running dnssec with .se key )
