The problem we're having is that for some people our subdomains don't resolve and for some they do. Does that DNS entry look right, or is something wrong?

I must assume you made a change the the DNS... The changes need to finish propagating. I would wait 24-72 hours, and then if it still is not working, then worry about it. Although you may want to update the serial if you made a change.

No, I made the changes over a week ago and they still don't work for some people. The work fine for me, but for some other people I know they don't...Any more ideas?

Can you have one of the people who can't reach your subdomain(s) do an nslookup (or dig) and send you the results to see what their ISP's dns server is returning for the subdomain. Are the people affected local using a common isp where a firewall or network issue or common ISP dns server/cache may be coming into play, or different providers?
