Post subject: DNS not working on private network

Hello,
I've got a problem where clients can't resolve websites. They can get to the allowed websites but not anywhere else. I can ping google's ip address but not friendly name.
Interestingly..the clients who have MAC address passthrough work but NOT the ones who are supposed to be on PlanA. I've tried giving the DHCP scope my external DNS forwarder but that does not work either. Any ideas?

I had the same problem. Do you have your offloading shut off on ALL your NICs? to check:

Go into each connection, click "Configure", and under the "Advanced" tab, look for anything that says "Offload" and switch it to "None" or "Disable".

Password offloading page 31 chapter 5 does not seem to have anything to do with what I'm experiencing. I have not checked/ticked the box in Dispatcher to use password offloading. Everything was working wonderfully then stopped. The free websites work so google, yahoo, and patronsoft work but no other ones do. Again its ONLY for the client PCs that are NOT in the mac address passthrough list. It seems they can't find the login page on the apache server. Maybe I broke something in the httpd.conf file. I needed to change the IP addresses on the server so went into that file plus the config.ini file.....Yes I'm a dummy. Can you put me back on track please? I've got 219 users and I don't want to put them into the db again...

Just fixed it...Sorry to be a nuicance. It was the httpd.conf file. Basically the client PCs were not seeing login.php page to allow them to become authenticated and then onto other websites.

A little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing.....
users...;)
