DNS contains TWO values for one name, help

[hellbeach]

We have two DNS local DNS servers. If I run the following from the dos-prompt:
nslookup
>server 10.42.42.1 (one of our local DNS)
>test.test.com (I just made up a name to show you what happens)
This is the result I get:
Name: test.test.com
Addresses: 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2

but if I use an external DNS instead of our internal I get this:
Name: test.test.com
Addresses: 192.168.0.1

which is the correct answer...

My question is: Is there a plaintext file which contains all the DNS information on the novell server which I can manually edit to correct this problem ? (I tried using DNS/DHCP tool and removed the "test.test.com" entry but I still get the same problem)

go into dns/dhcp console
select domain and then export
this gives you a text file

i would also check you in-arpa zone as well

Are you sure you don't have two nic's in the server? One for segment one and one for segment 2? We have 4.

Problem solved.
I unloaded and reloaded named.nlm.. must have been a glitch...

If I export the dns to a textfile, can I then edit this textfile and import it to the DNS again ?

yep
can do the same for dhcp.
