OK; Friday afternoon, brain fade time... I have my production internal domains. W2K3 AD, AD-integrated DNS. External-facing DNS is hosted by ISP. If I dig or nslookup for mail.essexcredit.com from an outside host, I get our proper public IP address. If I do the same from inside, I get our private Nat'd IP address. I seem to remember setting up an alias for it, but I need to change it now and I can't for the life of me remember where it is. Nslookup gives the correct address, but with "non-authoritative answer". Dig gives me: C:\Dig>dig mail.essexcredit.com

If it had been removed, say, 5 months ago, would that record still be there? How can I find the DNS server that is authoritative for this record so I can change it?
