Evening all,
I have a little DNS/Routing question for you all. Our website at work is hosted internally and the CMS system used uses absolute addressing... so we are stuck with www.domain.com which when a user tries to access our website the request goes outside of our network to come back in again. The obvious downsides of that have become apparent when our net connection goes or slows down we're screwed.
Basically, what i want to do is make www.domain.com resolve on our DNS servers first, without leaving our network. Hope then it will all run a hell of a lot faster and have no downtime.
Our DNS servers are Windows 2003.
And no, changing the HOSTS file isn't the best option in this case as we have just over 700 workstations.
Any help/pointers would be great.
Cheers
