Hi,

I think there is a DNS server test website 
https://servers.opennicproject.org/srvtest3/    . You can try this to see if 
your server can pass the tests. 

And I am using Bind9. Here is my "named.conf.opennic" file. You may have a 
look.

zone "." in {
        type slave;
        file "/etc/bind/opennic/tld-root";
        notify no;
        masters {
                168.119.153.26;                         # ns0.opennic.glue
                195.201.99.61;                          # ns0.opennic.glue
                2a01:4f8:c17:fa94::;                    # ns0.opennic.glue
                2a01:4f8:c2c:e789::;                    # ns0.opennic.glue
        };
};
