PIX treats DNS queries little different, especially replies. The client
has the potential of contacting multiple DNS servers sequentially in the
event the first one experiencing some delays. The PIX keeps track of
all them and allows one reply to come back through. I'm not sure if
things changed in the version but its a good idea to check.. HTH

Subject: PIX DNS Issue [7:72685]
I swapped a router running ios firewall with a pix 506e and i have been
having
all sorts of issues. first, is the DNS....all clients use an internal
DNS
server which forwards all request to an external DNS server....this
works
fine
with the router but with the PIX it doesnt work. when i configured the
clients
to use the external DNS server everything worked fine. The pix box is
running
the 6.3 code.
i know i am missing something...but can't figure it out yet...i really
would
appreciate any comments.
regards,
Tunde
