We've been experiencing a problem with a temporary loss of DNS connectivity with our SEF. We've a few internal connections which uses a FQD, so it's set up on the firewall to do this (eg: our webserver).
Randomly, it a workstation will loses the ability to get the DNS information from the firewall, and therefore using the FDQ to connect, fails. Other things appear to work fine (outside DNS connections). It will then just begin making appopriate private DNS lookups, and no pattern has emerged as to when it starts working properly again.
Has anyone experienced this problem? The workstations seem to be mostly Windows 2000 from those who have reported it, however I cannot be certain that it's relegated to Windows 2000 machines.
