It sounds like the WINS server is correct (no domain name)
and a DNS server is not...
To locate the DNS server could you not use nslookup?
nslookup
set type=all
machine.domain.com
by setting type to all, you'll get the name servers for the domain
that had the answer, correct?
Alternatively, could you not start with the DNS server the
machine is configured to use. If it is not the SOA, then trace
it back to the SOA? Looking at the DNS cache would tell you if
that server has the wrong answer or the correct answer....

Subject: Who is resolving my DNS name
I have two Windows 2K domains with a trust manual relationship between the
two. While I am in one domain and try to ping the DC in the other it
resolved to a wrong IP address. It's close so someone has probably just
mistyped a number but I am unable to find where it is incorrect. When I type
the name without the domain name it resolves fine (from my dns server using
a wins lookup) When I put in the correct domain name it comes back with the
wrong address.
Is there any way to determine who is resolving the address? Thanks.
