Hi all.
At the moment on my network I have 2 DNS servers , I would like to the new server that currently is a Domain Controller as the new primary DNS Sever and this new sever is not as DNS server at the moment. Can someone please advise?
Many thanks

2012-01-23 10:47The DHCP setting works fine for machines on DHCP, unless you have a lot machines on static IPs like we do (this is due to an application requirement). If you do, PM me and I'll provide you with a VB Script to change the DNS entries on a list of machines from a text file.
