1. Okay, if I do an nslookup (i.e ==> nslookup cnn.com test2.cable.com it will have the name resolved at test2.cable.com on the same subnet, because test2.cable.com has a direct connection to the internet.
2. What I would like to do is be able to do the same nslookup ==> nslookup cnn.com test.cable.com (same subnet as test2.cable.com , except it is going through a PIX firewall to get to test.cable.com) going through the firewall (test.pixfirewall.com), so in essence I want to come in through the firewall rather than the test2.cable.com connection. How do I configure the pix firewall to do this?
(test.cable.com is the secondary DNS server)
 
Why would you go through the firewall to get to this DNS server test.cable.com if it is on the same subnet as the rest of your network? The test.cable.com DNS server needs to exist on a different network accessible through on of the interfaces installed in your PIX in order to use the pix.
 
can the flash memory on the pix firewall be 64mb?
