We had one of these a couple of weeks ago, for some reason DNS was sending a
query for localhost to the root servers, the weird thing about that is DNS
should not even be queried for localhost in the first place, that is why it
is in the hosts file. As a workaround creating a forward lookup zone named
"localhost" then in the zone create a host record leaving the name field
blank and give it IP 127.0.0.1, create the record anyway when it barks at
you saying (same as parent folder) is not a valid host name.
We never figured out why DNS was trying to resolve localhost, the only thing
I could think of is there a program that has its own resolver logic that
ignores the hosts file and queries directly to DNS, bypassing the hosts
file.
If this does not stop the 5504s post your ipconfig /all for this machine and
verify on all machines that your DNS suffix search list does not have a
single-label DNS suffix that there isn't a zone for, or is not registered in
WINS.
This can also happen if you have a machine with an illegal character in its
host name.
