That's not surprising. I have people tell me my dns servers are broken
because they don't resolve a certain chase.com subdomain, but the problem
is the subdomain's authorative servers claim they aren't authorative and
anyone who is running any anti cache poisoning settings will have the same
problem.

I have lots of things set on the news server to prevent nasties, even some
anti MAC spoofing stuff. Any one of those settings could have an effect if
the packets are weird in some way.
