I ultimately found that I needed to use a CH in KDIG but wonder how I/We could update the
documentation or add an alias for chaos.
Working Example:
dig +short @<dns server> version.bind chaos txt
dig +short @<dns server> version.bind CH txt
kdig +short @<dns server> version.bind CH txt
Problem Example:
kdig +short @<dns server> version.bind chaos txt
I had to read source code to find the answer in a speedy timeframe.
