RE: DNS forwarder

If you put an entry in the forwarder with nothing in the host field, and put
test.com in domain as you have, it should point test.com to the internal ip
of the server, assuming it is inside the firewall of course. Is
engfiles.test.com on the same physical box as test.com? You have to have an
entry for every host you want to resolve.

Okay that works, but is there a way when I type in test.com it goes to the
server and not some website.

What happens if you type in http://engfiles.test.com? That is the address
you need to have local workstations point to.

 Ryan,
In the dns forwarder page, the first line is for the hostname, put the
actual internal server name in the host box, ie:servername. I use the
forwarder a lot and it works wonderfully but if you just use the domain
without a hostname things may not work like you expect if you have more than
one host.

Yes all computers are using the firewall as the DNS server.
