DNS Problem?



For some reason, access to certain webpages (agedwards.com) stopped working
from within our intranet. I'm not sure what changes were made to the server
before we started noticing the problem. I installed SP2 about a month ago,
but I think the websites were still working after that.

The DNS reports 3 different errors. I guess it reports them when it tries to
update. The last one would repeat 3 times. Of course, they aren't very
helpful, at least to me. If anyone has any idea, I'd appreciate it.
