DNS problem

[Alexei]

Hi

I set a new Windows 2000 AS domain. And I have also 15 clients that should join the new domain. The problem is that these 15 clients have ROUTABLE IPs and not private IPs.

I am wondering how could I set the DNS so that the clients may join the domain and in the same time keep their routable IPs?

Thx in advance

when you say clients, you mean clients in your LAN or WAN?

To do this, you must provide a route between the clients and Active Directory server. Your clients reside on a public network, and I'm assuming your AD server resides on a private network.

While this can be done, it doesn't make any sense architecturally. Why do these clients need public IP's?

from my experience routable IPs have always caused me a problem...................
