I was going to explain this to him when I answered his mail. However, nslookup returned a "Non-existent host/domain" *Now* it does work. This was the random behavior I was referring to. I thought that the last time we tried this you couldn't duplicate the succesful nslookup when you tried this several hours later. It will be interesting to see if this happens again. cgf
