I think your debugging tool is faulty, as a dig ns cnn.com
@a.gtld-servers.net gives:
cnn.com. 172800 IN NS twdns-01.ns.aol.com.
cnn.com. 172800 IN NS twdns-02.ns.aol.com.
cnn.com. 172800 IN NS twdns-03.ns.aol.com.
cnn.com. 172800 IN NS twdns-04.ns.aol.com.
twdns-01.ns.aol.com. 172800 IN A 149.174.213.151
twdns-02.ns.aol.com. 172800 IN A 152.163.239.216
twdns-03.ns.aol.com. 172800 IN A 207.200.73.85
twdns-04.ns.aol.com. 172800 IN A 64.12.147.120
All of the above answer to me and have the same serial for cnn.com.
I guess your tool probably asks a faulty caching nameserver for the NS
records of cnn.com - there are several misguided implementations that
cache for a longer period than the TTL of the record states.
Having said that and beeing a hostmaster for a large german broadband
ISP i am indeed quite thankful for Microsoft ignoring low TTLs in most
Windows XP installations especially as todays drones do no seem to care
about asking proper IN MX questions. ;-)
