Got it! Thank you everyone for your help. I'll try the batch file/script solution first. We just finished our migration to AD and we have tons of projects going on. I want to leave DNS alone for now until there's time to really sit down and plan something out. The HOSTS file entry adding would be a temporary but effective fix for us.

It's not very glamorous. but it worked. -----Original Message----- From: Dolphin, Jeff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 30, 2003 11:44 To: 'ActiveDir ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Subject: [ActiveDir] Policy to distribute domain wide HOSTS file Either I've been hit with the stupid stick or I'm looking in the wrong place! Can anyone assist me in creating a policy to add an entry to the HOSTS file on our domain computers? Thank you for any help...
