  1. Vista's DNS Suffixing on Vista's 'Next Gen' TCP/IP Stack · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I'm having problems with Vista's DNS Suffixing:

    - My entire network has the dns suffix : work.intranet and I have a BIND dns server that resolves a.work.intranet and *.a.work.intranet to 192.168.0.2 so that if I ping bbb.a.work.intranet or ccc.a.work.intranet they all resolve to 192.168.0.2 (at least up until Vista)

    - If I ping a.work.intranet it correctly resolves to 192.168.0.2;
    - If I ping a it correctly resolves to 192.168.0.2;
    - If I ping bbb.a.work.intranet it correctly resolves to 192.168.0.2;
    - BUT IF I ping bbb.a it no longer resolves. (could not find host)

    - If I do a nslookup bbb.a it correcly resolves to 192.168.0.2

    So what appears to be happening is that it isn't adding the dns suffix when the domain has more than two parts (xxx.yyy).

    Any ideas how to solve this?
