RE: [CentOS] Bind Problem

So from the CentOS box you can type something like: host -t mx domain.com

and that works?

How about this from the Windows box: c:>nslookup

...

server YourCentOSName or IP set type=mx yourdomain.com

That should work

If that also works, then check the DNS server your windows box is using. It may have cached the DNS entry for domain.com (assuming the DNS server is NOT the CentOS box)

You could also try an ipconfig /flushdns

Yeah, that is what I did. The windows box is using a different dns server, but as you wrote out, I switched it over in the nslookup command. Its appends the wkst's dns suffix on the query domain.com but not name.domain.com? Bizarre.
