If I understood the question right, this won't work. When you get an answer
from the first server, it stops querying, even if the answer is
"non-existent domain". He won't use the second server unless he doesn't get
any answer from the first (for example if it's down).
You could try setting up forwarding from the Windows server to the Unix
server, but that still may not work if both servers are authoritative for
the same domain and have different data. If at all possible you should get
all DNS servers to give the same answers.

Please respond to
nv-l@lists.us.ibm
.com
edit the /etc/resolv.conf and enter both nameservers, it should try the
first entry first and then the second
nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 10.xx.x.xx
domain tlc.state.tx.us
domain net.local
in this example,my netview is also setup be a nameserver but then i entered
the primary dns..should work the same.

Subject: [nv-l] Reverse lookups from multiple DNS
Hi,
Has anyone had any experiences with reverse lookups from multiple DNS's?
In our environment we have a unix DNS server and a windows DNS server with
different entries in each. Right now, our Netview is resolving from the
IPs from the unix DNS server. Anyone know how I can get Netview to do
reverse lookups on the windows DNS server as well?
Thanks
