One of my computers doesn't show it's DNS servers

[BTRY B 529th FA BN]

CMD/ipconfig/all

shows no DNS servers, my other computer does? I stumbled upon this trying to add the ipv4 address in manually. I thought it was suppose to have the DNS servers listed? Win7 64 Pro OEM

If are are setting the IP address manually, you'll have to set the DNS server(s) manually, too.

I can't remember but I thought they shown up even when things were set to automatic.. i mean I know what they are but i am missing a minor detail... :hmm:

if they are set manually or by dhcp they should show up in ipconfig /all

I always disabled IPV6 before connecting the machine to the network - as it can and will add entries to the IPV6 tables (and get dhcp of its own) - which you will have to clean up.

For some reason i wish vista/7/2008/R2 had IPV6 disabled by default as it is so easy to forget and then have entries in you AD/DNS/DHCP lease.

#1 cause for home router speed/suckiness is leaving ipv6 on. i think its the cheap switches/routers just don't handle it right.
