I found one thing that I was doing wrong according to the DNS & Bind
book. I had multiple "A" records pointed to the same IP. I have taken
those records out and made one "A" record pointing to the IP and
"CNAME" records pointing to the "A" record. This seems to helped, but
I'm still having the problems. If anyone could shed some light on
either of these problems it would be much appreciated.
