Hi
My networked Windows workstation has two DNS servers referenced in its IP config
The first, primary, DNS server is our local network's DNS server, the secondary, 8.8.8.8
If I ping a remote server, that isn't referenced by our local network's DNS server thern I don't obtain any responses
If, while seated in front of a PC that has 8.8.8.8 as it's primary DNS server, I do the same, my pings all get a response back
Why is it that the secondary DNS server, configured on my PC, doesn't kick in to take ove where the primary one failed ?
thanks
yann
Alternate DNS will not help with this.
Generally I just use DHCP on a workstation as it is fully satisfactory and I do not need an alternate DNS. My networks need that.
