Hi Rick,

I am aware that it is a somewhat odd (but not incorrect, am I right ?) to put a non-recursive name server in the resolv.conf but I am not able to understand the behavioral difference of ping/dig and nslookup.

But logically shouldn't it be moving to the next name server when the first one fails even in the case of ping and dig. This is what, I think, one would expect from a resolver.

The first server in resolv.conf didn't fail. It just didn't give you the answer you wanted.
