Root DNS Servers Administratively Prohibited

[DJX]

I'm trying to reach the Root DNS Servers (http://www.root-servers.org/index.html) over my HE tunnel but I am unable to do so.
Doing a trace route from my router shows that the destination is "Administratively Prohibited"

#trace 2001:500:84::b
Type escape sequence to abort.

Thank you for fixing this.
Trace Route still fails but the server resolves DNS now.

Looks like just c.root-servers.net is the only one not working now:
