It's called a "bug".

What OS updates do you have installed?  Several mention DNS corrections, and
though it's spelled 'donmain', there is a recent raq3 dns update on the support

It's either going to be in /usr/admserv/cgi-bin/.cobalt/dns/index.cgi or somewhere
in /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Cobalt.  My guess is the former.
