Amazing!  Thanks Ted!  I entered all of the name servers on the other 
machines but let Ubuntu do it's own thing.  This was the first time I 
noticed any difference.

We just switched to Cox and Ubuntu was using the Cox name servers where 
the others are using a specific name server we have used for a long time.

Thanks again!

Jeff
