Re: Client computers change DNS

Thanks for both answers.
We have no manual nic configuration.
Also, we have no group policy applied to any machine.
Strange thing is that when clients connect, everything works fine and
DNS are right. It's some time later (with no specific reason) that DNS
server is changed.
Will keep looking for an answer.

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.
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?
