Secondary DNS server will not resolve

by weisst . Updated 25 years, 6 months ago

This is the configuration:

I have setup a Windows 2000 Domain using a single server at this point and, of course, it’s hosting AD DNS. Clients are able to connect to the domain and use the AD DNS records to resolve names and resource records. However, I also need to browse the internet using my ISP’s DNS.

I have 10 Windows 2000 Pro clients using the AD DNS as the primary DNS server and I set the clients to use my ISP’s DNS as secondary DNS server to resolve web names.

The problem is that I cannot resolve any web names with this configuration, only my internal AD DNS names. When I tell the clients to use the ISP’s DNS as primary and AD DNS as secondary, I can resolve web names but not internal private AD DNS names.

Does anyone have any ideas on this one?
