On another computer, I run nslookup and there is a message of non existant
domain, but then it lists 4 servers. three of these are different from the
other computer. Two of these are Exchange servers (one of which is a DC),
one is a file server on our network and the other is a local pc.

Where does this information come from? Obviously I have a problem somewhere.

when I run nslookup, I get a list of 8 ip addresses. I only have 3 Domain
Controllers. Those three are listed, but then I have 5 others listed. I can
identify four of the others as local computers, but the final one is a dead
IP that I had used in the past.

What could cause this and how do I fix it?
