The newer pipelines can maintain a local name list of 8 hosts maximum. Name requests which can be served from this list will not be forwarded to the Client DNS. You have to configure the names manually (it is not a DNS cache), the IP addresses can be updated automatically. See yourself at Mod Config -> DNS. Note that this will not be changed according to the provider you use. Actually I can't see any difference between using the static list or always the same external DNS regardless of the connection used. BTW, I haven't had any trouble resolving names on a DNS from a different provider. Only if you use private names (local to the network behind a connection profile) this won't work at all. -- Best regards, Wolfgang _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- B · E · N · E · I · C · K · E EDV-Beratung ________________________________________________________________________ Netzwerk-Design Remote Access und WAN-Lösungen Storage-Lösungen (RAID, libraries, NAS/SAN) COMPAQ Server und PC Windows NT Implementation und Administration Dr. Wolfgang Beneicke fon +49-6223-97 07 20 Fasanenstrasse 16, D-69251 Gaiberg (Heidelberg) fax +49-6223-97 07 21 _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- ++ Ascend Users Mailing List ++ To unsubscribe: send unsubscribe to ascend-users-request at bungi.com Archives: http://www.nexial.com/mailinglists/
