Help me with DNS problem I created (very stupid)

[Guest pez]

I posted this over on the DNS group. But I will post here too because

more people read this group.

Last week we were having issues with our ISP's DNS so I pushed a GP to

set our primary DNS to use OpenDNS. Obviously this broke active

directory. So I changed the GP back. But all my Xp clients that were

pushed the GP update needed to be fixed. After disjoining and

rejoining to the domain their DNS was set back to our internal DNS

servers. I am having trouble with one laptop. No matter what I do I

cannot get the laptop to forward DNS queries to our internal name

server. From the command prompt if I type nslookup it still displays

the open DNS name server. If I do an IPCONFIG /all my internal dns

servers are listed as the primary and secondary servers but if I try

to ping an internal server the client still attempts to query

openDNS. Can I force my client to use the internal DNS servers? Any

suggestions?

Try running ipconfig /flushdns followed by ipconfig /registerdns
