You should configure DNS for your workstations using a local server. Then configure the local DNS server to use forwarders. Any requests for resolution that cannot be done locally can be forwarded to your ISP DNS. -----Original Message----- From: Herchenbach, Jim [mailto:jherchenbach@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, August 04, 2003 9:32 AM To: windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [windows2000] DHCP/DNS & GPO question Ok, I'm stumped.... Win2k Server with SP4, same on clients. I have my DHCP handing out my ISP DNS addresses in this order ISP1 ISP2 LocalServer Statics on the Server are in the same order. With this config, the clients can access all shares, and the internet works, but no GPO's are loaded. I change the configuration order to LocalServer ISP1 ISP2 Statics stay the same With this config, the clients load the GPO's fine, shares work fine, but I can not access the internet. any help would be greatly appreciated, as school is starting soon. jim at school
