I use a startup script in GP that sets this using WMI:
 
On error resume next
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set IPConfigSet = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
    ("Select IPAddress from Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration where
IPEnabled=TRUE")
 
For Each IPConfig in IPConfigSet
    If Not IsNull(IPConfig.IPAddress) Then 
        For i=0 to UBound(IPConfig.IPAddress)
 
  sIP = IPConfig.IPAddress(i)
   
    
       Set colNetCards = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
       ("Select * From Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration Where IPEnabled =
True")
   For Each objNetCard in colNetCards
   
   arrDNSServers = Array("<yourDNS1>", "<yourDNS2>", sIP)
       objNetCard.SetDNSServerSearchOrder(arrDNSServers)
    
       Set objNetworkSettings =
objWMIService.Get("Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration")
       arrDNSSuffixes = Array("<domain1>", "<domain2>")
       objNetworkSettings.SetDNSSuffixSearchOrder(arrDNSSuffixes)
    
       strPrimaryServer = "<WINSIP1>"
       strSecondaryServer = "<WINSIP2>"
       objNetCard.SetWINSServer strPrimaryServer, strSecondaryServer
       
       
   Next     
    Next
 End If
Next

Subject: [THIN] IP config for large farm


Just wondering how you all are doing this.
 
In the past we have hardcoded the ip infor for nics (ip, dns,wins...) I am
not sure why.  May have been due to unreliable DHCP servers?
 
Anyways, we are in the process of building, what could end up being, a large
farm.  
 
We want to avoid major work if DNS/WINs entries have to be changed.  So if
we hardcode it and have a 100 servers a bit of work has to be done to change
them all.
 
We thought about using GP to set dns and it looks like it might be doable
but I can't find wins gp's.  So it is kind of limited.
 
 
So how are you all doing this?
 
Thanks
