<div>Hello,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am wondering if anyone can point me to who manages the .BE ccTLD. We are seeing one of their NS performing referrals on DS query when performing DNSSEC validation and it is causing some issues.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Here are their NS:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>BE. 86400 IN NS a.ns.dns.BE.</div>
<div>BE. 86400 IN NS b.ns.dns.BE.</div>
<div>BE. 86400 IN NS c.ns.dns.BE.</div>
<div>BE. 86400 IN NS x.dns.BE.</div>
<div>BE. 86400 IN NS london.ns.dns.BE.</div>
<div>BE. 86400 IN NS prague.ns.dns.BE.</div>
<div>BE. 86400 IN NS brussels.ns.dns.BE.</div>
<div>BE. 86400 IN NS amsterdam.ns.dns.BE.</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The one we are seeing issues for is: x.dns.BE.</div>
