I could be wrong, but a reference to the TLD would indicate root name servers. If that's the case, Windows stores them in %SystemRoot%System32DNSCache.dns and Linux (id: BIND) stores them in a file named root.hints in your BIND directory. Do a find / -name root.hints -print & to find out exactly where it is on your system. HTH, SF I think what Enigmatic is asking for is the Root hints/Root name server file in Windows and Linux.
