Sorry if I use English, but my Spanish is very poor.

zen.spamhaus.org is a delegated zone, not an host. In other words, it
contains NS records, not Arecords.

So it's perfectly normal for it not to resolve; at least not to A or
AAAA queries like the one you are (implicitly) running. On the other side:


[gmp@sh2 ~]$ dig +short ns zen.spamhaus.org
d.ns.spamhaus.org.
t.ns.spamhaus.org.
3.ns.spamhaus.org.
b.ns.spamhaus.org.
f.ns.spamhaus.org.
0.ns.spamhaus.org.
q.ns.spamhaus.org.
x.ns.spamhaus.org.
7.ns.spamhaus.org.
c.ns.spamhaus.org.
2.ns.spamhaus.org.
r.ns.spamhaus.org.
a.ns.spamhaus.org.
k.ns.spamhaus.org.
l.ns.spamhaus.org.
i.ns.spamhaus.org.
g.ns.spamhaus.org.
h.ns.spamhaus.org.
8.ns.spamhaus.org.
o.ns.spamhaus.org.
5.ns.spamhaus.org.




To check if zen is correctly working for you, the query you should run is:

[gmp@sh2 ~]$ dig +short a 2.0.0.127.zen.spamhaus.org
127.0.0.2
127.0.0.4
127.0.0.10



127.0.0.2 being the test record and those replies being meaning that IP
is being listed by SBL, XBL and PBL, that are the individual components
of ZEN.

not follow this list.
