RE: [FW1] Internal DNS
Title: Internal DNS
Unfortunately, the internal and external DNS
servers have totally different roles. The internal DNS is aware of
the internal websites and so forth... Basically, I want my VPN users to
download SecuRemote from CheckPoint, download the necessary ".C" files from FW1
which will allow such users as AOL users using SecuRemote to know when to use an
internal DNS and when not to. By reading the check point documentation I
have come to the conclusion that I need to create a "dnsinfo.C" file so that
SecuRemote will know when to use the internal DNS. I need
guidance... Is there a better way of doing this than creating this
dnsinfo.C file.
Thank
You

Give users two DNS servers one internal one external that way if the
first fails it will automatically use the
second and be transparent to the
user.
The initial order is up to
you.

I have currently set up a VPN successfully and am
capable of gaining secure access to my Intranet through a dial up ISP using
SecuRemote. Where the problem occurs is when I try to access any
internal websites through the ISP. I can only access the internal
websites if I enter the IP address of the site (only works for the site; if
I try to open a hyperlink I get a "host name" error because of lack of
DNSing) or specify a specific internal proxy server under the proxy settings
of IE. I have also created a dnsinfo.C file but it did not resolve the
problem. Basically, what I want to do is to have the users that are
trying to connect to internal websites automatically have the dns servers
available to them. I do not want them to continue using the internal
DNS servers for accessing "internet" websites. Please let me know how
I can resolve this problem.
Thank You
