Simple question but I have to ask, Do you have the zone configured on both DNS servers? Are they ADI zones or primary and secondary?

so my External Dns Lookups is using my Network card DNS settings
do you think its a good idea to add more DNS (external FREE DNS) in my tcp/ip of my NIC ??
or use "check" use this dns server and add some free server ?

what yall think ???
