[windows2000] 2 Nics, Swapping DNS Servers

  • From: "Davey B" <db1001ster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
  • To: windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

I've a 2003 box that has two nics..
I've simplified the networks to make it easier to understand.. but
each entry has something set..

Both are statically configured
Nic1  -
192.168.0.2
mask /24
DG 192.168.0.1
DNS 192..168.0.1

Nic2
10.10.10.2
/24
DG 10.10.10.1
DNS 10.10.10.1

Now the issue is that yesterday if I did a nslookup I'd get -
default server : server192
address: 192.168.0.1

today it's swapped to the server10
address 10.10.10.1

Is there a way to make Nic1's DNS be "the master" DNS or lock the
machine to use NiC1 to always use the 192.168.0.1 DNS server ???

I've got around the issue by removing DNS entries for NIC2 (10.x.x.x)
but I'll need to resolve addresses on this range later on.
I had thought of host file... but that's a bit lame.

Any keywords I need to google ?

Thanks,
