DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.
timeout (2 secs)
*** Request to geisel.mydomain.com timed-out
Clients are configured to use DHCP and DHCP is configured to use WINS with NodeType = 0x8
In the example above nslookup returns an error code “rcode = NXDOMAIN” and the request
timed-out.
All client are on the same domain and subnet and configured to use DHCP yet some clients names are added to WINS and some are not?
