I have heard from numerous sources that even if you provide multiple name servers in windows 9x tcp/ip config, only the first is used. Not sure how true it is currently. It seems from below you are talking about resolvers, not authorative name servers??
Brian: Yes, talking about resolvers. If I remember the incident correctly, at the time a number of other nearby providers were using NT servers and it was those which failed to ask another authoritative name server for the domain when a particular server was not reachable. In our case, it was actually the second server listed for our domains. Chuck
