DNS Multihomed timeout

Guest

I have a very weird problem
I have 2 NIC. One for our Lan: 192.168.100.x an
one for our Internet Connection: 192.168.1.
We are running AD. WIth the INet connection turn off, DNS runs just fine. It forwards all requests not for the local network to the ISP DNS server.
With the connection turned on our DNS times out when looking for a address outside of our network
I can see that the request are going to both network cards. I have set DNS to only listen on the 100.x address
Disabled the external card from registering into DNS, though it still does this
NSlookup times out as well unless I use the parameter -timeout=10. Anything shorter won't work
Binding is set for Internal then External
Any help will be much appreciated

Problem is DNS will always reg itself to identify itself if it's a DNS
server on all interfaces. Hopefully this machine is NOT a domain controller.
If so, there are other registry entries to muck with.

Carefully select the interface in the reg and disable that interface and
follow the article below.

Unfortunately it is a DC. I have no fear of editing the registry
Any additional help will be appreciated

Here's a repost that will help:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This will work to avoid that "Blank Domain FQDN" (as I call it) Private IP
that you don't want to register.

This is assuming the machine is also a GC. If not, don't worry about the
GcIpAddress part.

1.You need to disable the local IP address registration without stopping
netlogon from registering SRVs. Otherwise, you'll create a blank domain FQDN
with the external IP and delete the internal private IP just to find that
netlogon will re-register promptly every 60 minutes.
This will take care of that:
(taken from http://support.microsoft.com/?id=295328)
To disable only the registration of the local IP addresses, set the
following registry value:
Key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters

Registry value: DnsAvoidRegisterRecords
Data type: REG_MULTI_SZ
Values: LdapIpAddress
GcIpAddress

2. Then manually create the GC address that you want and the LdapIpAddress
of the interface you want to show up in DNS.
