If that's an SBS reference, although the docs tell you to use forwarders it actually works better without them.

Remove the forwarders, that is most likely your issue. Create a rule to allow your internal DNS servers to query the internet and your troubles will likely disappear. If you don't believe me, try it for a day or two. There is no need nor requirement to use dns forwarders...unless...your internal domain isn't a .local is it?

Im using my local DNS server on my internal NIC with no DNS on my external (well with the problems Ive been having today, Ive added an external DNS to my external but that is not my normal setup). I think I will read through the article Tom linked for me and see if I can find out what is going on. Thanks. > Aare you using DNS forwarders on any of your internal dns servers?=20
