have swapped a win98 machine for an xp pro machine.

in the dns entries there were two dns entries.
one for general internet [a bt server]
one for franchise specific applications

on the 98 machine the internet dns was at the top and the other second.
on the xp machine if the internet dns is at the top of the list the internet names are resolved and the others are not.
if the application dns server is at the top of the list the other stuff works.

i cannot get both the internet names and the app names to be resolved.

my understanding of dns is limited so please bear with me.

any ideas welcome.
