encounter this strange problem on some of my user PC. Users are
running XP pro SP2.
User will interimittently be unable to resolve FQDN of certain hosts
from our DNS servers. After about a few minutes they will be able to
resolve automatically or after doing ipconifg /flushdns manually.
NSLOOKUP during the problem works perfectly.
During the problem, when doing a ipconfig /displaydns, the
non-resolvable host name is there but with a "Name does not exist"
record. Resolution to other host names in the same domain works. A
check of the host record of the non-resolvable host in the DNS zone
file shows it is still there. The DNS event log does show any
possible error.
The DNS servers is hosted on 2 DC running win2k3 SP1. The zone is
setup as standard primary zone with dynamic update enabled on the DC
running as the SOA. The zone is not AD intergrated but a normal zone.
To troubleshoot this problem we have tried to point users to the 2nd
DC but the problem still surface intermittently. We setup another DNS
server running win2k3 just hosting DNS service. The problem still
remains.
Anyone have any solution on this ? TIA.

Are the clients using only the DNS server that support the AD domain?
No ISP, no router IP's allowed to be used for DNS on any member of an AD
domain. All DNS servers used by clients must be able to resolve the AD
domain plus all internet resolution the clients need.
