    I think what happened, he made the change before AD replicated, so when he
    made the change it created a new zone in AD which would overwrite the other
    zone. Usually if you change one then the other you will get a pop up message
    that says the zone already exists in AD and asks if you want to use the zone
    in AD or overwrite the existing zone. If the change was made before the zone
    replicated it may have overwritten the other zone. Win2k3 will create
    conflicting zones in AD giving one a name beginning with CNF. I don't think
    Win2k does this, it just overwrites it. I've seen this behavior myself on my
    two DCs before I figured out I just had to wait for replication.
