Root DNS Server Issues?

Okay, nevermind. Even the valid responses from another ISP's
domain server are being 'sliced', yet we get valid responses.
None of the responses from the root servers contain a valid
name resolution.

We're getting responses from the root servers, the names just
aren't resolving. From a windows NT machine the error

is "Non-

existent Domain".

Ah, I just noticed something. The packet length for the DNS
response is supposed to be 510 bytes but it's being truncated
to 128. What the heck would cause that??
