DNS Problem with Win XP Pro

[Jeff]

Hi I am having an issue with win xp pro seeing my dns
server on my network. It seems that when i setup dhcp and
after configuring my gateway for my internet and my dns
settings. my xp workstations logon into the network
slowly, when my server dns is secondary to my ISP's dns,
it seems in order for the workstations to see the
internet i have to set the Isp's DNS first- now the
network pc client does login the network but it takes
longer than a normal logon should. but if i obviously
setup dhcp with my network local dns server as primary in
my list they login quickly but i cannot see the internet
at all. this only happens with my xp clients. is there
anything that i can do to tweak or change in xp or my
server config.

Everything needs to use your server's IP for DNS.
For Internet access, you need to change the server.
Open Administrative Tools->DNS on the server, open the
help file, and look up DNS forwarders. Add your ISP's
DNS servers as forwarders on the server.
