I highly appreciate everyone's help in the caching name server bit. Building on that one:
Everyone knows my issues that i am having in terms of reverse lookup so the windows clients won't freak. I have decided to switch focus..as it seemed to make sense. I am now looking to setup a full DNS server for my internal network. Everything is actually set statically via DHCP using MAC addresses.(see attached jpeg).
Do i have to manually enter every machine or can the dns populate the names and ips via dhcp?
