(Almost) only as far as making sure that your DHCP server tells its clients the right IP to use for their DNS queries. Which it looks like it is, from subsequent replies. DCHP servers tell the clients various things to configure their network, one of which is what DNS server IPs to use. Others are the clients own IP, and things like the gateway (where the clients connect through to the outside world), netmask (which sets the boundary between what's inside or outside). So, if your clients have proper networking addresses, you can ignore debugging your DHCP server configuration. If they have some details wrong, then you need to check whether your DHCP server is doling out the right information, or your clients are ignoring it (some people set manual overriding configurations on their PCs). -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
