Hey all,
I'm having issues with my DHCP scope on a Windows 2003 Standard server.
I'm trying to push out a domain suffix search order however that option
doesn't seem to be available on my server and I can't make it show up.
I'm working with a freshly installed copy of Windows 2003 that I fully
patched minus SP1.
I joined it to the domain and authorized the DHCP server and setup the rest
of the scope information (IP range, DNS server, WINS server, etc). However
when I tried to add the suffix order the 135 option doesn't show up.
I have tried this like three times and had one of my colleagues review what
I did and we can't figure it out.
Any suggestions??
Thanks,
Charlie

| When I
go to the DHCP MMC on all but two of my W2K3 DHCP servers and select "Configure
Options" on the scope or server options. Under the General tab I have an
Available Options Of 135 "Domain suffix search order".
I'm
trying to get this option configured on a few of my servers because we have a
problem resolving names if we don't put in the
suffixes.

Hmm... Are you trying to
set options other than your AD domain name?
What made you choose 135 as the option
number?
Last I had checked (and it's been a short
while) you couldn't set the suffix search order with DHCP. I don't have
one handy to see it to see if it's changed recently, however I do note that
the RFC's show option 135 as PXE - vendor defined. Doesn't make me think
that you can use it without having issues later. Plus the client
wouldn't understand that setting.
Curious.

| If all your clients are XP, you use GPO to set multiple suffixes.
If you have pre-XP clients in the mix, you use a script to stuff multiple
suffixes in there. I thought I had a sample script for this on my site, but
it's not there right now. When I'm less busy, I'll whip something up and post
it.

| For when you have non-XP clients, you can put the following code into a
machine startup script and apply the policy at the appropriate level.
''''''''''''
On Error Resume Next
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set objNetworkSettings =
objWMIService.Get("Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration")
arrDNSSuffixes = Array("Suffix1.net", "suffix1.com", "suffix1.local",
"another.suffix.whatever")
objNetworkSettings.SetDNSSuffixSearchOrder(arrDNSSuffixes)
Set objWMIService = Nothing
Set objNetworkSettings = Nothing
'''''''''''''''
Alternatively, you can shove the suffixes as a REG_SZ value into the
following registry key:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\TCPIP\Parameters\SearchList using
reg.exe or Wscript shell
Should work for XP clients as well.

| That's my understanding as well Al. When we first looked into doing
this (because DHCP does seem like the logical place to do this) I
think we discovered that we could set that option using 3rd party DHCP
servers as they had that feature active and working, but we never got
it working with Windows boxes.
I should note though that we never tested the 3rd party DHCP servers,
we just went the DHCP and script route that deji already mentioned.

| Well,
After
waiting on the phone with Microsoft about this issue for a very long time.
It
turns out that our name resolution using GPOs was working, its just that
NSLOOKUP in Windows XP prior to SP2 is broke.
Once
we got the hot fix for NSLOOKUP all of our domain suffix search orders
work.
Interesting, KB327361.
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=327361
Thanks
for everyones input.

Al,
GPO will indeed set it, but only XP clients can leverage it through GPO. The
script option is for pre-XP clients only. Trust me - I work for the
government (well....not really..... but trust me anyway ;))

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DHCP Issue
Last I checked, Group Policy won't set this either.
FWIW, I usually suggest using a DNS structure that allows your clients to
find all hosts. Suffix search order is an expensive way to get name
resolution for non-primary domains and if it's short name, I'm thinking a
cname is a better way to go.
FYI, you also can't use netsh to set this :) Script is the best way and Deji
was nice enough to post a sample.

I've never gotten that DHCP option tag to work.
I'd recommend using Group Policy (which does work) or else creating
CNAMEs for the "foreign" servers. It's OK for CNAMEs to point to another DNS
domain.
