Thank you cliff<br />
Just to clarify - this client has a checkpoint box, then a TMG firewall then their SBS box - do I still remove the alternate?<br />
<br />
ALSO<br />
<br />
would this existing configuration cause any DNS issues at all?<br />
<br />
Thanks again.<br />

Hi.<br />
<br />
Our client is using SBS2011 (A swing migration from SBS2003)<br />
<br />
We are troubleshooting some DNS issues and when we run DCDiag /test:dns we get some erros.<br />
<br />
Looking at their Network card settings I can see that their Preferred DNS server is the IP address of the server, but they have an Alternate DNS server IP address set to a DNS server of their Broadband Provider.<br />
<br />
I am sure this is not correct.<br />
<br />
Can anyone help / advise please.<br />
<br />
Thank you<br />
Regards<br />
Andy

SBS2011 Preferred and Alternate DNS Settings.

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
