Hi All

I have a Win 95 machine which is set up to look at 3 DNS servers.  The
first is our internal, and the second and third are the ISP's.  If I
look for a web address, the machine will query only the internal then
give up (checked this with a packet sniffer).

The internal DNS is sat on a linux box and serves subdomains beneath our
internet registered domain (ie. registed domain foo.com, this box does
london.foo.com and paris.foo.com).  The machine has no zone for root
".".

However, other machines I have seem to work fine (a linux box (not the
name server), and an NT box.  I'v done a quick test and it seems I have
the same problem with another win95 machine as well.

Any ideas (i'm sure it was working before)
