Right so if there is a parent domain and a child domain, the child domain
never goes out to the net for resolution because the parent exists. So how
do you get around this?

I beg to differ... if the DOMAIN name can't be resolved locally, that
happens.
 
But if I host DavidClark.com, and I issue a request for
foobar.davidclark.com, and there is no foobar "A" record on my zone, then
the request is not forwarded.
 
Hence the reason for creating static external records when using
split-brained DNS.
 
Respectfully, of course...

If the name can't be resolved locally, then the request is forwarded to
another server instead of the local server performing the lookup itself.

Can someone definitively answer this question... 

If using forwarders on your W2K DNS server, does the forward lookup occur
first or after the DNS server fails to resolve the name?
