As far as i know the version.bind txt chaos record is not asked by nmap
. Some people change this record or deactivate it, but this like symantec:


cemil () fusie:~/nmap-3.50$ host -c chaos -t txt version.bind ns1.symantec.com.
VERSION.BIND text "Symantec's DNS version of course!  Doh!"


but this is the exception... and if someone has changed this record
there are some funny things to see :)
