Hi David,

As long as all the clients are WinXP SP2 or running as local admin,
that's the best way to go.

HTH,

Tom

Doing it via DHCP would make it easier, since most likely each location
will be its own subnet (hence its own scope).

        I did this via the DHCP server instead of the DNS server.  Since
all my workstations are in the same domain, by sub-net was the only way
to distinguish them from one another.  

         

        If you can get your clients to use different scopes on the DHCP
server somehow, you can define different WPAD entries by scope.  Mine
was simple as they were truly separate sub-nets, but I think you "might"
be able to do that with Reservations to specify different scopes.  Just
an idea I had, I haven't actually tried it.

        If you happen to have seperate DNS subdomains for each location
so that the WPAD lookup (using a short-name) resolves to the local IP
address, it is possible.

         

        I'm trying to think of another way to have the WPAD records
different based on location, and can only come up with unmanagable
kludges.

                Tom and I see this differently (me == no, Tom == yes),
but I haven't had a chance to test Tom's theory.

                http://www.ISAserver.org

                Tom, Jim et al. I was wondering if you could help me.

                 

                We have two sites, each has an ISA server (2k on win2k3)
and they use a VPN tunnel between them.

                We've just upgraded to Win XP Pro, and setup a WPAD
setting in DNS to point them to the ISA server

                on our main site, unfortunately this seems to have
stopped our branch office people from browsing the

                internet. Is there anyway I can have multiple WPAD
records for each subnet (i.e. office)?

                 

                Or is there an easier way I'm missing?

                Regards,
