Obviously 10.0.0.1 is the DNS server. There is
My Forwarders are:
24.52.223.219
24.52.223.218
4.2.2.1
Forward time time-out is 5 sec.
I am not using recursion.
I am running a DC. I am able to receive replies from
names on the LAN. I am also able to receive 4 replies
from Internet names, but it takes about 7 - 10 secs. to
begin the replies.
Here is a nslookup of 4.2.2.1. It will timeout unless I
set the timeout to expire to any number.
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner>nslookup 4.2.2.2
Server: grasso.grassoco.net
Address: 10.0.0.1
DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.
*** Request to grasso.grassoco.net timed-out
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner>nslookup 4.2.2.2 timeout=1
*** Can't find server address for 'timeout=1':
Server: grasso.grassoco.net
Address: 10.0.0.1
Name: vnsc-bak.sys.gtei.net
Address: 4.2.2.2
If you need anything else, just let me know.
Dual NICs always cause this problem. It's a matter of configuration.
Move the internal NIC to the top of the binding order in Network & Dialup
Connections, Adv menu, Adv settings.
Remove ALL references for any external DNS server and use your own ONLY.
This is important.
Force DNS to be your server on the outside NIC, but leave the IP part to get
it from your provider.
Delete the root zone (looks like a period) if it exists.
Setup a forwarder to your ISP's DNS in your DNS server properties.
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=300202 will show you how in Step 3. TO
delete the root zone, it shows you how to in that article also.
On the outside NIC, disable NetBIOS, uncheck File & Print Svcs and the MS
Client service.
Set it to listen to the internal NIC under the interface tab.
Set all your clients to use the internal IP of this DNS server.
Remove the 127.0.0.1 for WINS (not related, but what the heck) and use the
actual IP address.
To get rid of this error:
*** Can't find server address for 'timeout=1':
Make sure you create a reverse zone, and have an entry in the zone for your
DNS server.
Then it should all work.
