Windows XP Append these DNS Suffixes in Order Not working

[lotus lion]

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could possibly help.

I am attempting to append my DNS Suffixes (in order) but the changes are not reflected?

This is an XP system.

Incase someone needs it:

Start>Settings>Control Panel>Network connections
Select the Connection, Properties
Scroll down to Internet Protocol TCP/IP, then Properties
Select Advanced then the DNS tab
Append my DNS Suffixes (in order) is present

However, when ever i add them, the changes do not appear in ipconfig/all and actually has an incorrect one also.

Have rebooted, tried ipconfig/flushdns and attempted to add them several times without effect. I am also an Administrator.

Does anybody know how to clean them out properly, a work around, or know where they are in registry?

Thanks,

Lotus
