When I put in the IP address and hit resolve, it gives me an error saying "An unknown error occurred while validating the server. When I login to the DNS server trying to accept the secondary zone transfer it accepts the transfer but then will fail soon after. Sometimes I can reload the zone, sometimes I can't.
