Folks, I have an AD system with mostly 2008 servers. All DCs provide DNS services. DHCP provides internal servers first as DNS servers, then several of our ISP DNS servers are listed. This has never been an issue until recently when staff have begun to report internal addresses/names cannot be resolved, and they get a Cox (our ISP) page not found display in their browsers. Also this only happens at some locations even though DHCP is similar at all WAN locations. So I'm wondering why the clients are not using the first servers in the list (they are on-line, no issues). And perhaps I should not provide external DNS servers via DHCP; provide internal only, and have only ISP DNS servers on my servers that provide DNS services. It's been ages since I set this up so a best practices would be helpful if anyone has them.
