I have a Vista wkst and two dns servers, one Win2k3 and one Linux running Bind. If from the Vista wkst I run nslookup, point it to the Win2k3 server, set q=mx then query Microsoft.com, it returns expected data. If I point I to the Bind server and perform the same test, I can see through the logging that the query "www.microsoft.com" actually gets querried as www.microsoft.com.ad-domain.local<http://www.microsoft.com.ad-domain.local> and www.microsoft.com<http://www.microsoft.com> and finally returns correct data. When I set q=mx and ask for microsoft.com it wont resolve it as it gets asked as "microsoft.com.ad-domain.local".
I thought the behavior was to append the dns suffix only to unqualified names? Thanks! jlc ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
