Hi

I got one more issue regarding test case no. 55.
As it got som=e problem with script...like asks for 
qtype=HINFO, whereas in the test= sequence its for qtype=A.
But the 3rd msg which NUT sends for qtype==SOA...& it should not 
reach to TN....Its happening...but NUT also wont g=et any 
response for this query from its cache...What I could understand =
from RFC2308 (Section 8),NUT can cache the SOA record...but if
any exp=licit query is given for SOA ...it wont work...coz 
this is not allowed o=nly to differentiate between normal 
SOA cached record & SAO cached as a =result of negative response...

What I have done like,
1. NUT sends q=uery(A.example.com.) for qtype=A
2. TN sends reply with NODATA
3. NUT= again executes A.example.com. for qtype=A & gets the response from cache=(that means 
negative response is cached)
4. NUT again execute A.exampl=e.com. for qtype=SOA. But this query is neither forwarded to
TN nor it =gets any result from its cache..... 

What I believe its as per RFC2308=, section 8....
Please comment...is it OK..or there is something wrong wi=th my understanding...
coz ultimately the test case is passed..

than=ks & regards

Prem
