bind runs on a separate Linux box. W2K3 has only one entry for DNS, and
it points the bind box. nslookup has no problem.

I did run both tests, neither found any error, except netdiag complaint
that gateway cannot be contacted (that's because my gateway has firewall
feature). But bind and W2K3 is on the same subnet so gateway IP should
not affect my settings.

I've 2 W2K3 DC, and 1 NT4 BDC. The Exch2003 has GC and FSMO roles while
the other DC has GC role. After restarting netlogon, I noticed the error
description slightly changed.

Thanks. I'll look into setting the permission is Exch5.5
