I'm reviewing a clients Windows 2003 DNS configuration.
Insted of enabling forwarders they deleted all addresses in the Root
Hints file and entered the DNS servers they want to be queried (two).
I beleive the configuration should work but just had never done it
this way. Any thoughts of why one should prefer to use forwarders over
Root Hints?
Note: the firewall will not allow querying external root hint servers.
All queries are forwarded to our ISP DNS.
Thanks, Jeff
