Thanks all for the replies.

Neither of my two servers is setup as a forwarder.

As for the reverse lookup zone, I have one setup but with the external IP
address.  Do I also need to set up another reverse lookup zone with the
internal IP address?

Thanks,
Steve

Your DNS server is setup as a DNS forwarder to that address.

To answer question #2: You need to setup a reverse lookup zone.

The following is the output from a NSLOOKUP query.  

X:\>nslookup 198.133.219.25
DNS request timed out.
    timeout was 2 seconds.
*** Can't find server name for address 192.168.2.12: Timed out
Server:  res1.ns.digex.net
Address:  206.205.242.132

Name:    www.cisco.com
Address:  198.133.219.25

My questions are:

1.  Why is DNS timing out after 2 seconds & where is the timeout value
configured
2.  What do I need to do so I don't get the "Can't find server name for
address 192.168.2.12?"  (Note 192.168.2.12 is my primary DNS server)
3.  Why is my system using res1.ns.digex.net as the name server?  I
don't
see where I have that configured in my system?


Thanks much,
Steve
