Wondering why we get variable results from the following command:    dig 
eftc.thehartford.com
(sometimes we get authority section and additional section feedback ... 
sometimes we don't)
 
Usually we see the following:
 
; <<>> DiG 9.3.6-P1-RedHat-9.3.6-4.P1.el5_4.2 <<>> eftc.thehartford.com
;; global options:  printcmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 35955

But occasionally we see :

I assume this is due to differences in response from different auth 
nameservers. If that's the case ... what does one have set up to return the 2nd 
response?
 
Thanks!
