You would do well to ignore any ISP-offered server.  Fedora has the most
up to date stable bind/named offered and bind will be kept up to date
via yum.  That is far more than any ISP nameserver I've seem.  Most are
literally a decade out of date, mangle any newer record types, and in
the case of morally corrupt ISP's, may even perform a man-in-the-middle
attack on the DNS data.  Just ingnore their servers.  You'll be happy
you did.
