Ahhhh, now that makes more sense... I hadn't thought Round Robin was involved in this case. I disabled that, and change the localnetprioritynetmask to a class B, now to see if that makes a difference...

I already had the "enable netmask ordering" option enabled, so that is not the problem. Do you think it might be because each of the 10.6.x.x subnets have a mask of 255.255.255.0? ________________________________ From: isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Stefaan Pouseele Sent: Wednesday, August 30, 2006 3:57 PM To: isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isalist] Re: wpad.dat DNS entry Hi Dan, check out my blog http://blogs.isaserver.org/pouseele/2006/06/30/multi-networking-wpad-sup port-in-isa-2004/.

I moved it from being sent out via DHCP to DNS per Jim's recommendation, which seems to have speeded up some things, but is now unreliable and causing problems. The problem appears to be the multiple internal subnets... Here is a diagram of how it is laid out: Internet | ISA Server --- Internal Network 1 (10.20.1.1) | Internal Network 2 (10.6.254.90)---- 10.6.8.x Subnet |-- 10.6.9.x Subnet |-- 10.6.10.x Subnet |-- 10.6.12.x Subnet |-- 10.6.14.x Subnet |-- 10.6.15.x Subnet I entered two Host (A) records for wpad, one for 10.20.1.1, and another for 10.6.254.90. Frequently I run across computers on the 10.6.x.x subnet where the FWC cannot automatically detect the ISA server, so I ping wpad and it resolves to the 10.20.1.1 address instead of the 10.6.254.90 address that it is supposed to get. I try repairs and such, it keeps resolving to the wrong one. When I reboot the computer, it resolves to the correct IP and works properly. I reboot the computer several times, and it gets the correct address. But, I'll hear of another computer having problems, and I'll check and it is the same problem. This is not going to be pretty over the next few days as teacher come back to work after summer vacation. What is the best way to resolve this? Change it back to DHCP, customize host files, etc?
