DNS Server

[matthewk]

On the network, we have a login page that will display when it has been noticed that the computer is trying to access the internet using the dns server. Sometimes, a user will have to refresh/query a webpage multiple times before this login page will show. On the other hand, if the user goes directly to http://the.dns.server.ip.addr, then the login page will show without problems. How do I find out the computername or hostname for the dns server, so that helping users on the network will be easier (http://computername)? The only idea I've came up with is running a webserver that will redirect to the http://the.dns.server.ip.addr. Thanks in advance

I also wrote this:

echo 10.61.32.1 login >> %windir%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

This will allow the user to type login in the address bar rather than the ip. Is there a default computername or way to reference the DNS ip? Thanks again

matthewk: How to create that think on network? I mean How to limit users to access internet by adding password like that?

i think going thru a proxy server would be easier....
