Re: Domain authentication problem



FWIW...I was thinking that I had read somewhere that it's better to put your
DNS server[s] in the DMZ ("perimeter" in the case of ISA). So I did it, and
then directed all clients to use the DNS/webserver in the perimeter network.
I also made that change on the domain controller.

Oh well. I'm sure I'm going to have about six million other questions to
ask in this newsgroup in the coming months. I'll definitely do my best to
try to solve my own problems, but answers come so quickly in these newsgroups
that it's hard to force yourself to learn on your own.

I most greatly appreciate all of the assistance I receive here, and do my
best to help others when I can. Mostly over in the Exchange groups.
Hopefully I can help at least one person as much as y'all help me. Thanks
again.
