Hello, we have an Oracle Financials application which is hosted on our
parent companies domain. Our two domains are completely seperate and we do
not share the same DNS servers, IP range or domain name. We connect to the
site with a frame link and currently we have dns entries for the host
under our own primary zone and we also have a primary zone for the parent
compaines domain with entries for the host. This is working most of the
time but clients are still encountering resolution problems
intermittently. Our domain is NT4 with dns running on the PDC, network
clients point to this as their primary dns server and it is set up to
forward to our ISP, the clients also have the ISP dns adresses as second
and third dns servers. Does anyone have some suggestions for improving
this setup. Thank you.

Before reading to the bottom, I figured this was your issue. After reading the last two lines, I know this is your issue. Clients should *only point to your internal dns server(s). Your dns server should then forward to ISP and/or use root-hints to resolve INET space. Make this change, and your intermittent issues should disappear.
