Now when External users are performing example: nslookup http://www.microsoft.com it got an error in return and only Local Hosted Domains are resolved.
I still have no solution for this particular case for Microsoft DNS Policy. May be some day Microsoft DNS Policy will grow up and will become "MAN" sometime 🙂
