DNS configuration

[Dave]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.dns (More info?)

I am noticing a very slow network access response. While connecting through
network neighborhood, a netowork share, and also while opening through Word
the connection is very slow. So I want to first verify my current
configuration.

Current server configuration

SERVER 1, SERVER 2, SERVER 3 >all configured the same 2003 standard edition
AD/ DHCP/DNS/WINS. The servers were installed in order 1, 2, 3.

Server 1 and 2 reside at site 1. Server 3 is located in another office and
connected to site 1 through VPN.

Server1
DNS settings>interface points to itself, Forwarders point to local ISP
TCP/IP DNS preferred points to itself, alternate points to server 2
WINS points to itself

Server 2
DNS settings>interface points to itself, Forwarders point to local ISP
TCP/IP DNS preferred points to itself, alternate points to server 2
WINS points to itself

Server 3
DNS settings>interface points to itself, Forwarders point to local ISP and
server 1
TCP/IP DNS preferred points to itself
WINS points to itself

The replication process is taking place but I want to verify that server 2,
and 3 are replicating from server 1 (if this makes a difference).
