I again have to agree with Al here. This is troublesome configuration which would add years of issues ot your life. :o)
Additionally, by any chance do you have gateways on both of the NIC configs? Just an FYI that that can bite you pretty nicely as well. joe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mulnick, Al Sent: Friday, June 04, 2004 4:48 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] locate DC, no DNS If I understand you correctly, you want to have the lab workstation/member contact the lab DC via the private network only. That about right? Save yourself a lot of trouble and install DNS in the lab and keep them logically separate (network as well if you need to). That'll also save you a lot of issues later. Install DNS in the lab environment and remove the public interface. You can transfer the zone first if you need to and then use that for lab purposes. Active Directory relies on DNS. If you can't reference it, you can't have it. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Singler Sent: Friday, June 04, 2004 1:54 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] locate DC, no DNS Folks, Here's what i am trying to accomplish in a Lab environment. Simplified: 1 DC, 2 NICs (one on private network, one on public). We use BIND DNS (no dynamic registrations) - DNS only available to public network. No WINS. I have a machine that is a domain member, 2 NICs (one on private network, one on public) which i would like to exist only on the private network (no DNS available there) and still be a member of the domain. I thought i could do this by mod'ing the lmhosts file and point the member server to the internal IP of the DC but so far that is not working. The KB that i am referencing is: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;180094 All OS's are w2k3. Any ideas? tia, john List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/
