S - DNS issues with Active Directory 2000
Hello,
I have two DNS servers. If I have one of the DNS servers as my primary DNS server, I can resolve a internet host name to an IP address. If I have the other DNS server as my primary, I cannot resolve something like www.yahoo.com to an IP address. But if I am on that "bad" DNS server, I can resolve the name to an IP address.
I looked at the config on both servers to see if there was any mismatch, but I do not see anything. Both DNS servers event viewers are clean ... any ideas ?

ok,, can you specify which client/server you are even on when you: I went into my network connections, brought up my network card, and put in the bad DNS server as my primary DNS server, so any DNS request I make goes to that server ...
On the bad DNS Server is there a zone called . ?
If there is you need to delete it.

Both the good and bad DNS servers have themselves as the Preferred DNS servers, and they have each other as the alternates ...
Yes, in the forwarder tab, both my bad and my good DNS servers have the same DNS servers on the outside world.
And actually, no I was mistaken ... I cannot resolve www.yahoo.com actually being terminal served into the bad box ... I can resolve it from my good dns server though ...
