I should have mentioned that before - It's a long story, but the
169.254.X.Y. is by design. Yes, it also happens to match the APIPA
addressing, but that can't be helped and so the address are indeed coming
from the DHCP server and that part is working as expected.

That's not good. The 169.x.x.x address is coming from a Windows service
called APIPA (Automatic Private IP-addressing). APIPA is a service to
dynamically assign IP addresses to network clients when they can't reach the
DHCP server.

Subject: NSLookup - results are not as expected

I'm losing hair on my head trying to understand what determines the order of
the IP addresses when they are listed in NSLookup?

For example when I run nslookup against my AD Domain name, I receive the
result:

Name: name.domain.com
Addresses: 169.254.0.152, 169.254.0.150, 169.254.0.151

What I am expecting to see is this:

Name: name.domain.com
Addresses: 169.254.0.150, 169.254.0.151, 169.254.0.152


How can the order be changed?
