In your DHCP server configuration you can specify what to give out as the DNS server. This is tag #6 for DNS server. You will have to specify your DNS server IP Address. If you have configured your iSeries as a DNS server and have the service running, you would then enter the IP address that the DNS service is configured to run on in the DHCP server. 1. Configure DNS service and start 2. Configure DHCP service and start 3. Configure workstations to use DHCP and retrieve DNS configuration from DHCP Chris Bipes Information Services Director CrossCheck, Inc. -----Original Message----- There must be something I do not understand. The i5 is a DNS server and DHCP server. I was under the assumption that if I set the PC's on our local LAN to "Obtain DNS server address automatically" and "Obtain an IP address automatically" that I would get an IP address from the i5 (DHCP) and would use (for DNS) whatever the i5 had set up as DNS servers. Apparently that's not the case. So what is my PC using as a DNS server? Does that mean there is some PC acting as a DNS server in our office?
