Ping fails to resolve name but nslookup OK

Hi all

We have a very weird DNS resolver issue. Our DNS servers are running on
Windows 2003 Servers. We have Vista and WinXP clients. Occasionally, our
clients can't resolve internal server DNS names with ping but nslookup would
be OK.

Any idea what's possibly the cause?

Thanks.
