Peter, Our dns is configured as a forwarder only, is that the reason i'm having the problems? Do I need to add our ISP DNS IPs as forwarders or just leave the internal IPs as forwarders? thanks!

Your DHCP clients should only be getting assigned the internal DNS server address. The internal DNS server should be forwarding external requests to the ISP's DNS server. The DC should only have its internal IP assigned as a DNS server. -Peter " Patrick - IT Department" To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: com> Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DNS registration errors Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] tivedir.org 03/23/2004 02:38 PM Please respond to ActiveDir thank you, i think i'll try installing wins. I've already added my ISP DNS to the forwarders, but do i need to stop and start the netlogon for this to take affect? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 23, 2004 2:23 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DNS registration errors Patrick, Here are the KB articles: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;135919 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;261968 The second article explains why this problem is intermittent. -Peter " Patrick - IT Department" To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: com> Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DNS registration errors Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] tivedir.org 03/23/2004 12:43 PM Please respond to ActiveDir it is assigning the ISPs DNS, I called our ISP about it and LAN support is supposed to be calling me back (right, right). I inherited this mess and I'm still learning how this system is setup, so bear with me and thank you! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 23, 2004 12:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] DNS registration errors Patrick, Make sure that your DHCP server is not assigning the ISP's DNS server to clients, it should only be assigning your internal DNS address. I assume that your clients are Win2k or XP in which case the IP stack performs some "optimization" of the DNS server list based on successful / unsuccessful lookups. I can't find the KB article or go into detail right now because of time constraints but this may fix your problem. -Peter " Patrick - IT Department" To: "Active Directory" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: com> Subject: [ActiveDir] DNS registration errors Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] tivedir.org 03/23/2004 11:32 AM Please respond to ActiveDir Hi all, my scenario: 1 w2k server running AD Cisco 1721 Router DHCP ISP provides DNS We intermittently have logon problems where users lose their profile information and now i've run into where one user can't logon unless i assign a static ip addy and even then he can't access internet. I've checked the event viewer and i have a ton of event id: 5774 I have tried a few things mentioned on the MS website but most are for if you run DNS internally. Our DNS is running but with forwarders. Does anyone know what I can do or why this is happening?
