Another problem-Weird DNS resolve issue

Okay here is my setup. A small AD integrated network (all Win 2K) with a primary (GC) and secondary domain controller in the same subnet (just for redundancy). Both servers are also the primary and secondary internal DNS servers for the network. Everything replicates between the two. These servers have mapped outside access to resolve internet queries. I have removed the "root" DNS entry, and have added the IP address of our external DNS servers to the Forwarders tab. Here is the weird part. When client machines try to resolve Internet addresses the request skips the first domain controller (primary DNS), and gets resolved by the secondary domain controller (secondary DNS). So, I don't have a problem with Internet URL resolution unless I don't add the secondary controller/DNS to the "Alternate" DNS entry on the client machines. Even the primary controller/DNS goes to the secondary for outside resolution! Internal DNS resolution can still take place with the primary machine though. Any insight would be appreciated.
