We have an empty root domain, and 1 child domain. When we do an nslookup on an external hostname (eg nslookup www.yahoo.com) from the child domain, we get the proper responses we'd expect. When we terminal serve to our root domain DNS and do an nslookup on the same external hostname, if we don't add a "." at the end, it always appends our child domain suffix to the end.
So nslookup on the child DNS servers = nslookup www.yahoo.com = nslookup www.yahoo.com Nslookup on root DNS servers = nslookup www.yahoo.com = nslookup www.yahoo.com.child.ourcompany.com However nslookup on root DNS servers = nslookup www.yahoo.com. = nslookup www.yahoo.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This e-mail is confidential, may contain proprietary information of the Cooper Cameron Corporation and its operating Divisions and may be confidential or privileged.
