OK, earlier you posted this:

192.168.127.131 whiskey.windows.corp.XXX.com 
<http://whiskey.windows.corp.XXX.com> whiskey
192.168.112.4 wine..windows.corp.XXX.com <http://windows.corp.XXX.com> wine

So what is '192.168.127.129' ? it certainly isn't one of your DCs, which 
is what it should be pointing at. I am sure I have said this before, but 
your AD domain clients must use a DC for a nameserver.

Fix this and I am fairly sure everything will work as it should.
