DNS

I have 4 DNS servers and 4 DHCP servers issuing different
IP Address scopes.

I noticed that I have PCs that were not switch on for
weeks, and when they are switch on the IP address from the
PC using ipconfig /all is different from that on some of
the the DNS server. However the DHCP servers seem to be
updating its IP address correctly.

What settings must I have on the DHCP and or DNS for it to
dynamically update the DNS server

setting in Properties for DHCP server, DNS Tab, "Enable
Dynamic DNS Updates", select it...

If update DNS is enabled on the DNS tab of the scope properties *or* on the
DHCP server properties, *and* you have option 015 configured with the domain
name, *and* that zone exists in the DNS server listed in TCP/IP properties
of the machine DHCP is on, *plus* on Wink2 clients TCP/IP properties DNS tab
you have selected "Register this connection's addresses in DNS", DHCP *will*
update DNS.
