DNS Problem

by cshanyee . Updated 18 years, 11 months ago

Hi,

I?m having some problem with my DNS server recently. When I do nslookup,

C:\>nslookup msn.com
Server: server1.site1.domain.com
Address: 172.30.20.8

DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.
*** Request to server1.site1.domain.com timed-out

When I do another query again via nslookup, it able to answer:

C:\>nslookup msn.com
Server: server1.site1.domain.com
Address: 172.30.20.8

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: msn.com
Address: 207.68.172.246

The gateway is a firewall which forward dns query to ISP DNS server.
The server is able to resolve host in internal domain.
Pls adv what is the reason for DNS request timed out.

Thanks

Shan
