Hi,

So, how is DNS set up on the clients? ;-) And how is DNS set up on the DC server? Where does preferred DNS server point to? How about other DNS servers entered under TCP/IP?

Are there any errors in Event Logs (System and Application logs) on the client and DC?

I have a linux firewall providing internet DNS. The DHCP is also on the firewall machine. DHCP points the clients to the DC as primary DNS and the linux machine as secondary dns. The DC is seutp to use the Linux machine's it's primary DNS server. There ar not other DNS servers entered into the DC's tcp/ip properties.
