 No, 'dnschildren' tag is only relevant if internal DNS is not used,
 which normally is not wanted unless you have specific reasons
 to not use internal DNS.

 Bu the original error seems to indicate that one of the nameservers
 you are using may not be operating 'fully'.

 You may test this as in :

  % nslookup www.microsoft.com 202.54.30.1

  % nslookup www.microsoft.com 202.54.30.2

  e.g.

  Marc.
