I'd like to restrict access to the internet for some users in our different locations. I've tried several things, but found that the easiest was to not setup a DNS entry in the DHCP server or TCP/IP properties.
However, this caused slow logins to the domain.
Another way was to remove the gateway feature, but I don't believe I can do that as I am dealing with several sites, and the gateway would be necessary to route them back to our main location. Please correct me if I am wrong on this part.
The best way for me to do this now is to setup 2 different DNS servers. One that has the forward to the internet, and one that does not. Therefore, I can still add DNS entries for all users, but the one DNS address will not be forwarded to the internet, where the first one will.
I have 2 servers running DNS. They are backing each other up and have the to the internet. They are also storing this in the AD, not in a separate file.
My 3rd server in this location will be the one that does not forward to the internet.
How can I setup this server without it getting it's DNS entries from the AD and/or the other 2 DNS servers?
Thanks.
Detroit.
