i have a windows 2000 box with DHCP and DNS.

in scope options, i have 3 DNS entries (006)
192.168.1.1 (internal DNS server)
206.123.6.10 (isp dns #1)
206.123.6.11 (isp dns #2)

this way, if the dns service failed on LAN, clients are able to surf the internet at least...

all LAN clients get ip info by DHCP and the DNS search order is correct

in the registry, i also added
SuppressDNSNameServers
and
SuppressWINSNameServers

so the VPN clients get only DHCP info.
and it's working.

except that the DNS Servers list they get is this one;
206.123.6.11
206.123.6.10
192.168.1.1

it is reversed !

so how may it be possible ? how to change that ?

Thanks.

You client PCs should get only the internal DNS server from DHCP.

In your DNS server, you should configure the public DNS servers as forwarders.

it's already done...

i want clients to have isp dns in case the internal dns is malfunctioning...

so they will be able to surf !

i just want to know how to configure the DNS Servers order in DHCP BUT for VPN Clients !

cause they receive the same info but not in the same order...

please help
