	My named.root has been updated so appears to be correct.  The 
b.root-servers.net IP address I have is 192.228.79.201 so I think 
everything is fine there.

	Unlike others I have this problem regularly.  Every time I make my 
server do a DNS lookup it puts a lot of lines into /var/log/messages, 
but luckily for me I have not filled /var up.  This has been happening 
for many days now and I have not been able to find any real answers 
using google.
