We have 2 server's for 2 companies, sharing the same building, same DSL etc.
They run 1 DHCP server on Domain 1, but the laptops on Domain 2 are being
issued the domain 1 DNS settings. Is there a way the laptops can get Domain
2 DNS settings. The laptops are used off site so need to be DHCP, and Domain
1 has similar laptops. Thanks

It is better to have two subnets, for example setup VLAN. If that is
impossible,. try to use reservation and let the DHCP assign IP and DNS
accordingly.

If you have separate domains and DHCP servers you could probably use DHCP
Authorization.

Or, set default (fallback) IPs on your own laptops, and then provide a
shortcut to stop and start the DHCP client service as required. When onsite
the user stops the DHCP client service.
