Hi all:
Last week changed my DC. Got a new machine running as DC, DHCP server
and DNS server.
Users can connect with no problem and get the right DNS servers I am
assigning them through DHCP.
Problem is suddenly (have detected no trigger for that) they change DNS
servers. Instead of .xxx and .yyy they've got .zzz, wich was the old
dns server.

Show us your UNEDITED, TEXT from "IPConfig /all >name.txt"

If you use DHCP but ALSO set the clients on their NIC to override
the DNS then you get the manual client setting.

IPConfig /all always shows the CURRENT settings -- no matter how
they got that way though.

Most strange of all, DHCP server is still the same in their computer.
Btw, both DHCP and DNS services have been uninstalled from old server.
Anyone can provide an idea about this?
Thanks in advance.
