Ooops, wrong subject line. My apologies.

I see this also. I had to revert to Bind 8.33 on NT. The first
time I got "no more recursive clients: quota reached" so I bumped that
up to 20,000. Next, it stopped resolving external clients twice. I
was going to put on more diagnostics, it is not working well enough to
troubleshoot further. I don't know if it was resolving local clients
at the time.

I was told that there was a bug in Bind9.2.1 for Win2000/NT, when I
experienced similar problems.

I had to revert to 8.3.3
