Hi all,
I have a win 2k3 set up at home. It is working pretty fine. Only thing is that I had experimented slow AD account log in. I know this is due to dns issues. I have noticed that for some reason. When I reboot one of the dhcp client computer the address given is ok. Except for the Dns suffix. I have a 2wire router. So when I log in at first I have dns suffix gateway.2wire.net when it should be my domain name. However if I run ipconfig /release /renew. I get a new address with dns suffix set to my domain name.
Any idea?
 
actually I did turn it off. When I type ipconfig /all it is showing that dhcp server is 192.168.0.2 which is my server (router being 192.168.0.1)
 
Unplug your server and try to get an IP from the router.
 
Thanks I'll do it tonight when I'll get home!
 
Hi, I unplugged and then nothing happenned could get an address from any dhcp.
