Hi All,

First off all I can tell you we are running bind 8.  Don't know how to
tell exact version.

Having problems specifically with sites like www.netscape.com

This is the current output given by "nslookup www.netscape.com"

 nslookup www.netscape.com
Server:  ns1.dspi.com
Address:  216.233.10.162

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    www-jp.netscape.com
Address:  64.236.8.10
Aliases:  www.netscape.com

If I run "ndc stop", and then "ndc start" here is the answer I get for
awhile(about 10min) -

 nslookup www.netscape.com
Server:  ns1.dspi.com
Address:  216.233.10.162

Name:    www-mv.netscape.com
Addresses:  207.200.83.93, 207.200.83.94, 205.188.247.65, 205.188.247.66

          207.200.83.29, 207.200.83.30
Aliases:  www.netscape.com

Here is the result again after about 5min -

 nslookup www.netscape.com
Server:  ns1.dspi.com
Address:  216.233.10.162

Non-authoritative answer:        (as you can see it has already become
Non-authoritative)
Name:    www-mv.netscape.com
Addresses:  205.188.247.65, 205.188.247.66, 207.200.83.29, 207.200.83.30

          207.200.83.93, 207.200.83.94
Aliases:  www.netscape.com


Does anybody know how to fix this?.  Is this a problem with my current
configuration?

Don't seem to have any problems with other sites.

Not using any other DNS servers in named.conf file.
Not using any forwarders.
Just using root servers to prime startup.
