Ok, I wasn't going to say this, but Microsoft has been absolutely
ridiculous about blaming other people, so I'm going to say it; it's not
directed personally at you, it's directed at the morons who wrote your DNS
software, and the even bigger morons who insist that
It's-Not-A-Microsoft-Problem-Because-Microsoft-Is-Perfect:
topaz.nstc.com used to run Microsoft DNS. After a while, having tried
repeatedly to get MSDNS to actually *serve* the zone files I had set up,
and having not been successful, I switched to Bind 8 and have had no
problems since.
You might want to try Bind 8.
