His wouldn't work as when clients connect to the internet, they use their ISP dns server which points our AD domain name to some other host on the Internet. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nathan Casey Sent: Tuesday, October 12, 2004 5:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] HOSTS file modification via GP? How about creating a host entry on your internal AD DNS server that points to your company web site, or any other site: your Forward lookup zone = yourcompany.com host record www 1.1.1.1 (ip address of your web site) This should work since your internal DNS server is authorative for yourcompany.com and the client machines use your DNS servers for name resolution >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/12/2004 11:48:22 AM >>> Is it possible to modify each client's HOSTS file via Group Policy? If so, how is this done?
