I am fairly new to this so bear with me ... I have set up
a NT4.0 sp6a server to be my dns server. All pc's on the
network browse all .com sites but some of the .org sites
do not come up ... are there settings I can make to get
this working ... thanks

Try clearing out the .org top folder. You can do this by opening DNS ADMIN
and open the cache folder. Find the .org folder and delete all subfolders.

I have a similar issue.
W2K and XP boxes will not reliably resolve addresses to
our webserver. W9x clients can always see it using the
webname. The IP works every time on both platforms.
The IP addy working makes me think it is a DNS issue.
Why would the DNS server not resolve the addresses to an
internal webserver for the W2K and XP clients. Sometimes
(30%) the addresses will reslove but not always.
Is this a timeout somewhwere? What would cause this?
Thanks a million!
Mark
